The Fulani people, originally from Sudan, have a rich history dating back to the 11th century. They played a significant role in Islamization and the development of the Poular language. The social structure of the Fulani in Fouta Djallon has been influenced by Islamization, leading to a transition away from their traditional nomadic lifestyle. The Poular language has evolved into a complex and expressive language, reflecting the Fulani's love for essay, writing, and books.
