My First Impression Of Mombasa City | Was Shocked About Old Town Mombasa #mombasa #kenya #travel
Mombasa mˈbæsə/ mom-BASS-ə; also US: /-ˈbɑːsə/ -⁠BAH-sə) is a coastal city in southeastern Kenya along the Indian Ocean. It was the first capital of British East Africa, before Nairobi was elevated to capital status in 1907. It now serves as the capital of Mombasa County. The town is known as "the white and blue city" in Kenya.[citation needed] It is the country's oldest (c. 900 A.D.) and second-largest city[3] ar irobi, with a population of about 1,208,333 people according to the 2019 census.
Mombasa's location on the Indian Ocean made it a historical trading centre,[4] and it has been controlled by many countries because of its strategic location. Kenyan school history books place the founding of Mombasa as 900 A.D.[5] It must have been already a prosperous trading town in the 12th century, as the Arab geographer al-Idrisi mentions it in 1151. It was a part of the Kilwa Sultanate from approximately the early 14th century until the dissolution of the sultanate in 1513 A.D. The oldest stone mosque in Mombasa, Mnara, was built c. 1300. The Mandhry Mosque, built in 1570, has a minaret that contains a regionally specific ogee arch. The city later came under the occupation and control of the Omani Empire in the late 17th century.
In the late pre-colonial period, it was the metropolis of a plantation society, which became dependent on slave labour based around the ivory trade. Throughout the early modern period, Mombasa was a key node in the complex and far reaching Indian Ocean trading networks. Its key exports then were ivory, millet, sesamum and coconuts.
Today, Mombasa is a tourism-based town, home to one of the state houses, with an extra-large port and an international airport.

    As a Kenyan you can do better and blame bloodthirst racist leaders. Wagalla could happen to any tribe in Kenya but since it happened to Somalis lets somehow look ways to minimize it and claim it as clan conflicts. Killings, shootings, tortures, rapes & dehumanization was all done by non Somali army of kenya in the command of the president of kenya. Stand up to injustice even if its not happening to you or to your people

    Just to correct you my friend, Kikuyu is not a clan but a tribe like Somali. Bantu is the equivalence of Cushite for example Bantu tribes differ slightly in ethnic DNA, language and culture same as Cushities Somalis, Oromos & Afars are related but differ in language,dna & culture. Also you are telling the Wagalla massacre from Moi supporters POV which may sound a bit unfair to the victims we lost to it. Wagalla 2.0 was to happen in Garissa primary compound until the Somali govt intervened. We can blame bloodthirst Moi for it and move on instead of minimizing the massacre to clan conflicts.
