Akuapem and Akropong were kingdom-states in South-Eastern Ghana. With the enthronement of the Akyem King in 1773 to the throne of Akropong alongside the throne of Akuapem, the kingdom became a double state known as the Akropong–Akuapem Kingdom. King Oseadeeyo Addo Dankwa III of Akropong held the "sacred seat" of the Akuapem-Asona, one of the seven major Akan clans, for sixteen years. In 1733, Akwamu launched his army against the city-State of Akropong, which had been spared from the Ashanti conquests. To defend itself, the city called upon soldiers who liked war, the Akim, and who are also the hereditary enemies of the Ashanti. Akropong was saved, and as a reward, the chief(king) of the Akim was enthroned as the King of Akropong.[1] The Akan49.1% of the population of Ghana are of the Akan Nations, the Akan Nations are a linguistic group of West Africa.
