Who is Mansa Musa?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was a West African ruler with wealth valued at $400 billion. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This isn&#8217;t a fairytale and you will see why.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Contemporary accounts of Musa&#8217;s wealth are so breathless that it&#8217;s almost impossible to get a sense of just how wealthy and powerful he truly was,&#8221; Rudolph Butch Ware, associate professor of history at the University of California, said the BBC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And Jacob Davidson wrote about the African king for Money.com in 2015\u00a0 Musa was &#8220;richer than anyone could describe&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Do you know who were <a href=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/2018\/10\/greatest-traders\/\">the greatest stock traders of all time<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Mansa_Musa_is_the_richest_person_that_ever_lived\"><\/span><b>Why Mansa Musa is the richest person that ever lived?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His wealth is estimated at $400bn, but historians admit that his wealth is difficult to pin down to a number. That&#8217;s how huge it was.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mansa Musa was born in 1280 in a family of rulers.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His brother, Mansa Abu-Bakr, ruled the empire until 1312 when he abdicated and went on an expedition with a fleet of 2,000 ships and never returned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mansa Musa inherited the kingdom of Mali. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was an impressive ruler.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The kingdom of Mali was from the Atlantic Ocean to Niger, with parts of Senegal, Ivory Coast, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, the Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Burkina Faso, Guinea covering almost 2,000 miles. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That large landmass gave great resources, for example, gold and salt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britishmuseum.org\/\">British Museum<\/a>, under Mansa Musa ruling, Mali possessed almost half of the Old World&#8217;s gold. And everything belonged to the king.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;As the ruler, Mansa Musa had almost unlimited access to the most highly valued source of wealth in the medieval world,&#8221; said Kathleen Bickford Berzock, who specializes in African art at the Block Museum of Art at Northwestern University, to the BBC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Major trading centers that traded in gold and other goods were also in his territory, and he garnered wealth from this trade,&#8221; she figured.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The empire of Mali had so much gold that Musa was the world\u2019s greatest gold producer and seller.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_was_Mansa_Musa\"><\/span><b>Who was <\/b><b>Mansa Musa?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To meet one of the five pillars of Islam, Mansa Musa made a pilgrimage to Mecca. This adventure cost huge amounts of cash. This \u201cLord of the Mines of Wangara&#8221; had to travel stylish and luxurious. The 60,000 big caravans had 1,000 helpers, 100 camels with gold packages, countless musicians for Musa to enjoy, and more than 500 slaves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mansa Musa came back from Mecca bringing several Islamic teachers. Among them were direct descendants of the prophet Muhammad, for example, and an Andalusian poet and architect, Abu Es Haq es Saheli, who designed the famous Djinguereber mosque. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Musa allegedly paid the poet 200 kg in gold. Counted today, it is about $8.2 million.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides his legacy, Musa\u2019s property is estimated to be worth an inconceivable amount, to around $400 billion. According to Time magazine: \u201cThere\u2019s really no way to put an accurate number on his wealth.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some believe that Mansa Musa\u2019s unbelievable fortune may have been somewhat overstated. Nevermind, he is still the richest person that ever lived.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t tell to the Rothschild Family.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is always an intriguing question.
