The statement that does not correctly describe the West African kingdom of Songhai is "The limited trade in and out of Songhai produced little wealth."

The Kingdom of Songhai was one of the largest empires in Africa during the 15th and 16th centuries. Gao was the capital city of the Empire, next to the banks of the N*ger River. The first part of the Empire was ruled by the Sonni Dynasty and the second by the Askia Dynasty. Under the Sonni, they conquered new territories such as Dejanne and Timbuktu, and big portions of the kingdom of Mali.
