Great Zimbabweโs history started over 1,000 years ago! ๐
It was built by the Shona people, who were skilled artisans and farmers. The city flourished from around 1100 to 1450 when it became a major trading hub. People from far away, including Asia and the
Middle East, came to trade gold, ivory, and other goods. Notable rulers, like King Munhumutapa, led the region and helped grow its influence. Fighting and changes in trade routes led to its decline, but today, it is celebrated for its amazing archaeological findings! ๐
