Title says it all. I've been interested in any potential expansions that the Romans could have had, so I wonder if there was any chance for Rome to take the mineral-rich Gold Coast.

I had an idea for a TL with a POD being somewhere within the first century and started with an expedition from Lixus that would find, possibly colonize, the Canary Islands and travel along the coast from there. Could lead to some interesting interactions with the Nok culture. But first, I need to know the Romans' opinion on it, if they had one.
