Up to 1880, however, French influence in the interior may be said to have been assured at only a few isolated posts.
After the death, in 18 17, of the great Moslem missionary con- queror Othman, a sheik of the remarkable peoples known as Fulah, the extensive " empire " which he had established, extending from near Lake Chad on the east to the borders of llie Atlantic on the west, was broken up into a number of independent but still powerful states. Sokoto and Gando fell to his two sons, while t...he countries to the west of the Niger became still further broken up. When, therefore, France resumed with determined vigor her task of ob- taining supremacy from tlie Atlantic to the Niger, she had to over- come the resistance of a series of detached and independent native states, extending from the n(jrth of the Senegal to the source of the Niger, most of them eitlier com])lete]y Moslem, or at least with 147 1 KS A F RICA 1817-1853 fanatic Moslem"^ as their rulers.
