 | | Britain fought four wars against the Ashanti kings between 1826 and 1896 (the Anglo-Ashanti Wars), one of which was notable as the first conflict in which the Maxim gun was used. |
 | | The hereditary Ashanti crown continues to be honoured by the Ashanti people, however, alongside the authority of the state. |
 | | Prior to European colonization, the Ashanti Confederacy was a major state, particularly during the period from 1570 to 1900. |
