Economy of the Great Zimbabwe Empire
B-
What type of goods were produced?
The Zimbabwe was based off of their trade and a little bit of how they made things. They lived off of livestock for food and other needs also. The Zimbabwe took about 20 million ounces of gold out of their land. The Zimbabwe people mixed clay and gravel together and that was called a "daga." Which then, the daga was for tools and other hard working jobs.

Did the trade of products improve the quality of life of its citizens?
The Zimbabwe people were selfish. They let barley let straglers associate with them. The Zimbabwe were very self centered and kept to them selves alot. It was hard for the Zimbabwe to become higher in the trade. (I think that's why the Zimbabwe kept to themselves.)
