      Important to note the period and the existence of slavery, perhaps you could do a segment on the history of slavery and correct the modern day myths on slavery. Just one other item I noticed you mentioned he made his wealth from gold, ivory and salt, this is correct but not complete, you forgot to mention one other commodity, slavery

While at this time in Europe, people were starving and were very unhygienic including kings and queens unable to bath or keep their themselves clean. The lack of hygiene meant that Europeans stunk and carried many diseases.

      "Our"?? A king is far less than 1 percent of the people. But the one we always, foolishly, try to claim and identify with.
      Now if you say: greed of those in power.., that would be more relatable. Yet, Musa was extremely generous, just to the wrong people...
      While when we criticize greed and say "our biggest problem".., we conveniently leave out the centuries of greedy invaders that continue to this day.., while most our people, in America and Africa, are peasants that have no clue, and little excess to resources to make a difference if they did.
      For the record: Our biggest downfall is, that we have always been a generous,loving and forgiving people, to a fault...
      We need to learn the healthy side of greed and selfishness. Learn to keep our own company so to keep our own companies... And realize that no words are one-sided... As there is a time and place for all things.

      If Mansa Musa was to somehow be revived with all his wealth, because he'd introduce so much new gold to the market, the value of the gold would come down and it'd become worthless, due to inflated supply.
      Therefore, he wouldn't be the richest man today. That being said, he's still comparatively richer than majority of today's billionaires. He just wouldn't be if you brought him back to life, because as I said, gold is no longer used as currency, so it wouldn't work.

      @@R3RATED Of course it would, since again, that's not how supply and demand works. Although you are correct in saying his gold would indeed still be somewhere on earth, it simply takes us back to problem no1.
      Since the abolishment of the Gold Standard, gold is not accepted as currency. If you possessed as much gold as Mansa Musa did in the present day, you'd certainly be rich for it. However, your problem would be you have to *sell* this gold to use it as currency, and there is no one on the planet who'd be willing (or able) to buy that much gold from you.
      Furthermore, since gold has practical uses, any of his gold which has been melted/moulded is no longer part of the supply. This means if you were to suddenly sell all of that gold, you'd reintroduce it to the supply in the process, thus driving down the price of gold. In fact, Mansa Musa famously lowered the value of gold in his time by accident, simply by giving away too much.

Without Europeans, Persians, and Arabs you people would still be running around in loin cloths and speaking click languages. Sub Saharan languages don't even match any other languages on this planet. They have no connection at all to anyone else's. Why do you think that is?.... So stop trying to fool everyone into believing your nonsense. We're all starting to see just how deceitful you people really are. And one day you'll pay for your lies.

    1. Mansa Musa go to Mecca bacause Mansa Musa saw one of the miracle of Prophet Muhammad,, that is when the moon is devided in two equal,, Mansa Musa is a very religious king,, but back then there's not yet religion Islam but the religion of Musa and Isa,, years before the moon devided in two,, Mansa Musa know about the prophecy bout the sign of new prophet and new religion,, he know from his older religion which is from Taurat from prophet Musa,, so when he see the moon devided,, he know that the time is come for the new prophet and new religion,, so he packed and go to Mecca to meet,, see,, direct to Prophet Muhammad,, and do shahadah,, after that doing hajj,,
    And Mansa Musa is not 32 when doing hajj is more older than that,, and when he on the way back to Mali,, he got sick and then die, but some of his children and family royalty member being able to travel back to Mali and,, then,, all the generation after that become Muslim Kingdom,,
    2. It's still rich when the family royalty member of Mansa Musa back to Mali,, cause, after that building the first university in the world,, and it's all Moslem scholar..❤️❤️❤️

    African people should stop celebrating Mansa Musa as a great king. He was not a great king or emperor! He was a robber!

He is reminiscent of what is wrong with African leaders today-greed, an inordinate love for an extravagant & ostentatious life style, and lack of concern for the well-being of their people. Had Mansa Musa spent all that gold in developing the empire of Mali, the colonization of West Africa may have been stopped in its tracks.
