due tomorrow please I need help

The kingdom went into decline from the mid-16th century CE when the Portuguese, put off by the interference of Kongo's regulations on trade, moved their interests further south to the region of Ndongo. The latter kingdom had already defeated a Kongo army in 1556 CE.She ruled during a period of rapid growth in the African slave trade.Nzinga fought for the freedom and stature of her kingdoms against the Portuguese, who were concentrating their efforts towards South West Africa, in attempts to control the slave trade.The arrival of the Portuguese had a strong impact on the economy, religion, and politics of the Kongo. How did Afonso increase Portugal's influence in Kongo? He sought to copy many Portuguese ways. He made Roman Catholicism the official religion, he also gave the capital of Mbanza a portuguese name Sao Salvador.
