According to Rémi Dewière, “Kanem and Borno extended their commercial and diplomatic networks from Morocco to Mecca in the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/middleAges" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>middleAges</span></a>, to northern Ghana and Instanbul in the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/earlymodern" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>earlymodern</span></a> period, and then to European countries in the 19th century.” The first known Borno diplomat was Idrīs b. Muḥammad, a cousin of the Borno sultan who was mentioned in the context of a mission to the Mamluk Egypt in 1391. In the decade following 1551, the sultans of Borno dispatched two embassies to Tripoli. In 1574 and 1577, the Borno Sultan Idrīs b. ʿAlī sent an ambassador, al-Hāǧǧ Yūsuf, to Istanbul.
