A group of Hausa nations established in northern Nigeria. The exact date of their founding is unclear, but at least by the 14th century, seven or eight small nations were established with a king at the center, which became Islamic and formed a loose alliance. These nations developed around walled cities. Countries such as Kano and Katsina in particular prospered through trade with the Sahara. However, in the mid-19th century, they were conquered by jihad (holy war) led by the Fulbe (Fulani) people. The Kano Annals, written in Arabic in the 19th century, are a valuable historical resource on the Hausa nations. → Related articles Empire of Songhai | Leo Africanus Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
ナイジェリア北部につくられたハウサ族の国家群。建国時期は定かではないが,少なくとも14世紀までにサルキー(王)を中心とする7〜8の小国家がつくられてイスラム化し,それらがゆるやかな連合を形成していた。これらの国家は,城壁で囲まれた都市を中心に発展した。特にカノやカツィナといった国家はサハラ交易によって栄えた。しかし,19世紀半ばにはフルベ(フラニ)族を中心とするジハード(聖戦)によって征服された。19世紀にアラビア語で記された《カノ年代記》はハウサ諸国に関する貴重な史料。 →関連項目ソンガイ帝国|レオ・アフリカヌス 出典 株式会社平凡社百科事典マイペディアについて 情報 |
