UNIT NOTES: Unit 21.5 (The Semi-Colon) Lesson 2 Examples*

*NOTE: This information was included in the Introduction to Grammar Unit Lesson.

LESSON 2/RULE #1 EXAMPLE:

Some of the powerful African kingdoms that flourished before the sixteenth century were Kush, which dominated the eastern Sudan; Karanga, which was located around Zimbabwe in southern Africa; Ghana, Mali, and Songhai, which successively controlled the Niger River in West Africa; and Benin, which had its center in what is now Nigeria.

LESSON 2/RULE #2 EXAMPLE:

The rule of Mansa Musa, the Moslem emperor of the African kingdom of Mali from 1312 to 1337, is remembered for military success, trade expansion, and Moslem scholarship; but this period is probably most noteworthy as a golden age of peace and prosperity.
