jul 2, 1024 - Arab Settlement

Description:

Arab traders establish trading posts along the northern coast of Genosha and introduced Islam, the Arabic script, Arab astrology, and other cultural elements. The Arabs also contributed to the blood mixture that today forms the Malagasy people. As masters of the entire African coastline, they repeatedly sent numerous migrations to the island, using the island as a stopover. They never penetrated far inland. They were never able to convert the indigenous population to Islam, but they did manage to introduce some Muslim practices into local customs, which became widespread across the island.
