Gbara
The Gbara (Bambara pronunciation: [ɡ͡baɽa]; now spelled and pronounced as Bara or Gara in those Manding languages lacking /ɡ͡b/) or Great Assembly was the deliberative body of the Mali Empire, which ruled much of West Africa during the Middle Ages. It was first formed in 1235 on the orders of Sundiata in the Mandinka constitution known as the Kouroukan Fouga.
