That image is historically inaccurate - the mosque behind him (Great mosque of Djenne) was only constructed in the early 20th century.

Africa is rich in gold and diamonds why not?

NICE SLIDE THREAD MY NIGGER.

Mansa Musa was the richest man of all time, if you go by wealth has a percentage of his country's GDP. Not sure how he stacks up just by inflation adjusted wealth. cnbc.com/2015/07/31/richest-man-of-all-time-try-king-of-timbuktu.html

>left more prosperity in the wake of his trip to Mecca than he ever built for his own citizens
>built his wealth from living near shiny rocks and taking slaves
>wealth didn't even last 3 generations
Pure pottery. You'd have to have half a brain to use this as a talking point. His empire was pitiful compared to a dozen others, so how did he have all the money? The traditional African leader way: hoarding it all from his people.

Depending on how you value gold versus goods.
He was the richest man in history, quo he had a lot of gold. But he lived in a tent, he drank from crudely made gold cups, and sat in his tent on a large gold rock.

he's nothing but a filthy mongrel

Probably got rich on selling slaves

Slaves, gold and ivory

King Solomon was the richest man in history

Musa I is one of the luckiest rulers in history:
>appointed deputy (regent) while current ruler was on pilgrimage to Mecca
>made into heir and ascended to the throne with the ruler's death at sea (tried to explore the limits of the Atlantic and never returned)
>goes on pilgrimage to Mecca, hands out tons of gold to random people and builds mosques weekly along the way
>crashes the price of gold throughout the entirety of Egypt and the Middle East as a result
>returns home to find that his army recaptured a regional capital city (Gao) and its kingdom while he was gone
>builds whatever he wants because he has metric tons of gold to spare
>huge urban population boom, tons of international tradesmen flock to his empire for gold trading
>dies one of the wealthiest people to ever live simply because he was given a throne on top of a mountain of gold
the building behind him is the University of Sankore which was built by him after he returned from his pilgrimage to Mecca

Aha me rich whitey ima go to meca and give out golld n an shit. Ah shiiet im poor n shiiet

mansa musa shows that blacks don't even teach their own history, just steal

>richest man in history

this is unverifiable but I'll bite

because he enslaved niggers and made them work in gold mines

King Rothschild and King Soros were the richest man in history.

>richest man in history
>dies in 1337
Is this a sign ???

Augustus was the wealthiest man in history, because he personally owned all of Egypt.

You might think that Africans would be very wealthy with all of that gold and diamonds they are sitting under.
But nope. One thing that they don't have is I.Q.

Rothschild

was he BASED though?

This, additionally the Augustus of Rome essentially held about 50% of Rome's GDP in wealth at the height of the Roman empire's wealth.

SO U BE SAIYN

WE WUZ KANGS N SHEIT!?!

Civ 4 was great

As proven on his Hajj to Mecca; Gold has diminishing returns as currency. He was a fucking whale in a lake pond and that fact he had so much gold at one time literally devalued itself. After he passed though some of those villages a brick of gold was worth less than a goat. He is rich by modern standards when you calculate the amount of tons of gold he has versus the price against the modern market. Against the Middle Ages market he tanks the price of gold instantly by spending so much.

Augustus is the richest person ever to live because his "assets" were diversified. He directly owned a country and the rest of the Roman government was at his command.

Mansa Musa is a good example of supply exceeding demand.

We wuz billionairz an shit.

This is spam. OP has not presented us with a source, context or argument. He mumbled a random historical fact, and then demanded that *we* explain *his* story. His post is effectively a one-line writing prompt one post. It effectively violates several posted rules (pol btfo/checkmate). And this Mansa Musa nonsense has already been posted hundreds of times. OP is a shill and his garbage post is spam.

Mali:
>Natural gold reserves
>Weak neighbours
>Arable land
>Trade with Morocco

Prussia:
>Shit land

>Half the population died in a single war

Funny how things turned out
