The spice islands of Zanzibar:
Over the years, spice production increased, elevating the colonial importance of the ‘spice islands’ of Zanzibar, and Tanganyika [mainland Tanzania] by extension. They had become part of the all-important and highly contested spice trade.
The spice trade was essentially the beginning of globalization. Spices were considered one of the world’s most prized commodities, even rivalling gold. Spices were used in a range of daily and luxury products, from perfumes and incense, to curing and preserving fresh meat, and in cooking.
Spices were a mark of power, wealth and privilege, and demand quickly outstripped supply.
