Notes

-Zanzibar, Dar es-Salaam, and Mombasa are effectively one metropolitan area
-Dar es-Salaam's growth having to deal with it having a lot of the rail connections to Zanzibar
-Tabora was central to multiple trade routes, grew rapidly during Sultanate rule for that reason, and became center of railroads
-Marungu important for trading beyond the Great Lakes and into the Congo region, got railroads and all that
-likewise with Mwanza and Ujiji
-Nyangwe was the capital of the former

Language

-Swahili first language of a lot of people due to slavery and movement of people and it serving as lingua franca
