Zanzbar. History is worth a adventure novel

 

Tanzania is one of the brightest states of Africa, where, for several decades, tourists come out of the country to fully experience a non-repeated colony of black continents and go to auto-safari.

But other than natural interests, Tanzania also knows his rich, but quite unambiguous history. The real Pearl became the Zinsbar, a small archipper in the east of the country, whose fate is so extraordinary that it is worth a real adventure novel.

During the ages of the island, there was a piece of invaders, because of their proper location, which was the most important trade routes of East Africa. The first mention of Zanzibar was still in the 10th century when the first settlers of these lands were the Persians from Shiko. What’s interesting is that, before today, indigenous people call themselves “Shiper.”.

This is Zinsbar residents who started fighting for equal wives and men. The idea of emancipation belongs to one of the Sultan’s daughters, who, falling in love with the German, decided to move with him to Europe. She was deeply influenced by women’s rights, so a stubborn and unrestrained princess wrote a book asking her to fight for her dignity and a happy, free life.

Despite that love of the freedom for the residents of the island, in the Middle Ages, the Zinsbar became one of the largest slave markets in Africa, acting until 1873, becoming the last market of slaves in the world.

In the 17th century, the Arab sultan ruled by the army. From 1853 to the throne, they had charismatic sultan Said, and he had moved the capital to the state in Zunsodor, strengthened the economy of his own state through the development of slave trade and extended territories of the supply plant. In addition, Said created an island of beautiful palinary complex, the Stone City, which is now part of the world’s heritage of UNESCO.

Another place to pay attention is “The House of Wonders,” which is built by the successor of Said, in the last word of technology at that time. There’s hydrogen, electricity, even an elevator. Really, over a hundred years ago, it was all incredible.

Another card from Zinizaru is Farmove Bulsar. I mean, the famous Freddy Merryry who was born and spent the first few years on this island.

So the Zanzibar can turn into one of the brightest memories for the life of a traveler.
