Death...?
In the "Death and Legacy" section, it mentions that his nephew Tidiani Tall succeeded him as the Toucouleur emperor (and from the years given, this was in 1864) - however, it does not say anything about Omar's death.

Did he die in 1864? If so, what was the cause of death? Or did he retire from office in 1864 - in which case, when did he die (and of what cause)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.102.219.141 (talk) 11:50, 18 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Your point is well taken. I have rewritten the beginning of that section for clarity and to include the circumstances of his death. The cause of death was apparently smoke inhalation, altough his body was never found. See   --Bejnar (talk) 20:03, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
