The statement "The Moroccans took complete control over the Songhai region" is:
False.
Here's why:
1. The Songhai Empire was a powerful empire in West Africa, and it was not completely taken over by the Moroccans.
2. While the Songhai Empire did face invasions from Moroccan forces, particularly during the reign of Sultan Ahmad al-Mansur in the late 16th century, the Moroccans did not achieve complete control over the entire Songhai region.
3. The Songhai Empire had a significant military and economic strength that made it challenging for outside powers like the Moroccans to completely dominate the region.
4. Eventually, internal struggles, conflicts, and external invasions weakened the Songhai Empire, but it was not solely under Moroccan control.
In summary, the Moroccans did exert influence and engage in conflicts with the Songhai Empire, but they did not take complete control over the region.
