History of Zanzibar
During the exploitation age, Zanzibar was under the Portuguese empire; Later in 1698 Zanzibar fell under the control of sultan of Oman who introduced several businesses to the island including ivory transportation and slave trade business, by importing slave to foreign countries selling them as commodities.
Later on there was an invasion of British hence a war between them and Arabs (under the sultanate of Oman) leading to the British Empire taking over Zanzibar island from the sultan of Oman.
