Thank you for providing this summary. When you write that the north had decentralized chieftaincies, did that include the Lango?

If you look at the empty spaces in those charts of the empires I showed, it's not that no one lived in those spaces, it's just that the people who live in those regions aren't really under a centralized political authority.
