Enquiry routes: What factors led to the decline of the Kingdom?
1. Give reasons why some of the Kingdoms declined. E.g. Internal disputes (rebellions, succession disputes), British interference, conquest by another kingdom, desire to expand territories - Akwamu's location to the east of the Volta in 1733, Denkyira's decline in 1701, Asante's decline in 1874.
