Agonglo was a King of the Kingdom of Dahomey, in present-day Benin, from 1789 until 1797. Agonglo took over from his father King Kpengla in 1789 and inherited many of the economic problems that developed during Kpengla's reign. Because of the poor economy, Agonglo was often constrained by domestic opposition. As a response, he reformed many of the economic policies (lowered taxes and removed constrains on the slave trade) and did military expeditions to try to increase the supply for the Atlantic slave trade. Many of these efforts were unsuccessful and European traders became less active in the ports of the kingdom. As a final effort, Agonglo accepted two Portuguese Catholic missionaries which resulted in a large outcry in royal circles and resulted in his assassination on May 1, 1797. Ada

rdfs:comment	Agonglo est (si on exclut la reine Hangbè) le huitième roi d'Abomey. Il régna de 1789 à 1797. Roi réformateur, il allégea les taxes sur le commerce à Ouidah et prit des mesures pour soulager la souffrance des esclaves. Il prit pour emblème l'ananas (« la foudre tombe sur le palmier, mais l'ananas lui échappe ») – allusion directe au danger d'être foudroyé auquel il avait échappé et à tous les obstacles qu'il avait surmontés. Certains, comme Barthélemy Adoukonou, suggèrent que le roi Agonglo aurait été assassiné parce qu’il voulait se convertir au catholicisme. (fr) Agonglô foi o oitavo rei do Daomé . (pt) Агонгло (Аґонґло) (1766 — 1 травня 1797) — 9-й ахосу (володар) Дагомеї в 1774—1797 роках. Його символом був ананас. що відповідає прислів'ю — «блискавка б'є в пальму, але ананас рятується» — натяк на небезпеку, яку він уник при сходженні на трон, і на всі перешкоди, що подолав.

Ada (en) Agonglo war der achte König von Dahomey. Er folgte auf seinen Vater Kpengla und regierte von 1789 bis 1797. Agonglo führte zahlreiche Reformen durch: Die Steuern wurden gesenkt, und er machte dem gemeinen Volk im Rahmen der größere Geschenke. Nach der Eroberungsphase seines Vaters konsolidierte Agonglo die Herrschaft seiner Dynastie. Daneben war er aber auch in einigen Schlachten erfolgreich und das Königreich gedieh unter seiner Herrschaft. Sein Symbol war die Ananas. Bemerkenswert ist auch, dass Agonglo der erste der Dahomey'schen Könige war, der eine Europäerin zur Frau nahm: Eine seiner Frauen war eine holländische Mestizin. (de)
