The Edo Empire, also known as the Benin Empire, thrived in present-day Nigeria from the 15th to the 19th century. It was founded by the Edo people and centered around the city of Benin. The empire was known for its highly developed administrative system, skilled craftsmanship, and powerful military. It traded extensively with European merchants, particularly Portuguese traders. However, tensions arose, leading to the British punitive expedition of 1897, which resulted in the annexation of the empire into British Nigeria.
