What was the main reason for the fall of the Kingdom of Ghana?

The lack of financial resources to meet the needs of the Ghanaian population due to the economic crisis experienced by the Ghanaian kingdom in the 11th century AD.

The lack of military preparedness of the Ghanaian armies to face the Almoravids in pitched battle due to the limited military techniques used by the Ghanaian kingdom at the time.

The invasion of Europeans in the African continent in the 16th century AD, which destroyed a large part of the Ghanaian territories.

The lack of natural resources to meet the needs of the Ghanaian population.

The pressure exerted by the Almoravid Empire due to territorial disputes between the two African states.
