Who traded with the Ethiopian empire?

The Ethiopian empire, particularly during the reign of the Aksumite Kingdom (circa 100 AD to 940 AD), engaged in trade with various regions, including the Roman Empire, India, and Arabia. They exported goods like gold, ivory, and frankincense, while importing textiles, spices, and metals. The Red Sea trade routes were crucial for these exchanges, linking Ethiopia to broader international markets. Additionally, the empire's strategic location facilitated trade with neighboring African kingdoms and beyond.
