In my American History classes, the only major colonies in Africa I have laerned about are South Africa, Algeria, and Egypt? Why were there no Pilgrims that went to Africa? Would weaker Moslem technology sent to African princes via Timbuktu enable more successful colonies? Could there have ever been more colonists, because thats where all of the potential slaves are? And could you make a POD and TL for it?

I have a few ideas: New plague brought by Europeans decimates African population, Guns of the Powhatan, or the Sahara is temporarily untransverseable for merchants.
