'The richest man in the world was a Muslim’

-

 

Money magazine has named Musa Mansa as the richest man in history. His introduction is that he was the ruler of Timbuktu. He ruled the kingdom of Mali at a time when it was rich in minerals and especially gold.



This was the time when the demand for gold was at its peak all over the world. His real name was Musa Keita I, but after his accession he was called Mansa, which means king.

 

According to the recently launched Pigeon Service for West Africa, no one knew the extent of Moses' kingdom.

 


Today's Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, Chad and Nigeria were part of the Mosaic Empire at that time. Mansa Musa built many mosques, some of which still exist.

 

It is difficult to estimate Mansa's wealth in this day and age. Still, his fortune was estimated at  400 billion dollar.


 

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has recently been named the world's richest man with an estimated net worth of 10 106 billion, while Mansa Musa had far more wealth than Jeff Bezos.

If inflation is not taken into account, then Jeff Bezos has the most wealth at the moment. But even with inflation in mind, Mansa Musa's wealth is greater than any living or dead rich man in history. When we compare the rich, we find that the Ruth Child family had a fortune of three hundred and fifty billion US dollars, while John D. Rockefeller had a fortune of 340 billion dollars.

The most famous story of Mansa's reign is his pilgrimage. This is the event of the year 1324. In this journey, Mansa Musa covered a distance of about six and a half thousand kilometers. Incidentally, when those who wished to see Mansa Musa went to meet him, they were stunned to see his caravan.

 

People saw that Mansa Musa's caravan included 60,000 people, 12,000 of whom were his personal followers. In front of the horse that Mansa Musa rode was a group of 500 men with a golden rod in their hands. The forerunners of Mansa's caravan wore fine silk.

Apart from them, the caravan also had a caravan of 80 camels loaded with 136 kg of gold.

 


Mansa Musa was so generous that when he passed through Egypt he is said to have given so many donations to the poor that there was inflation in the region.

 

Because of this journey of Mansa Musa, stories of his wealth spread to Europe and people from Europe started coming to him only to see how much wealth he had and to what extent what was being said was true. Is.



When the wealth of Mansa Moses was confirmed, the name of the Mali Empire and its king were added to the Catalan atlas, which included all known places at that time.

How our brains make us poor and how to avoid it

You are at an online store on the Internet and you are eager to buy something. And that thing is a bit expensive in terms of the amount in your bank account but at the moment it has become the most important thing in the world for you. And you wonder what would happen if the price went up and you lost the opportunity to buy it. Or what if it's over? In this emotional state, you calculate in your mind and decide to buy it. You do not even have to enter your bank card number because it is already stored in your computer browser. All you have to do is press the button. But after a few days, you start to regret it or even worse, you go into debt. Recent research and studies in the field of behavioral economics and neuroeconomics have shown that situations in which we make irrational decisions often harm our financial health. But what are our most common financial mistakes in this regard and how can we avoid being fooled by our 'mind'? A good way to do this is to understand what...

Get new information about black holes from seven billion year old signals

  Imagine if the energy of eight suns was released in a moment.   This is the wave of gravitational shock caused by the largest observable merger of two black holes to date.   The signal from the incident reached Earth after traveling nearly seven billion years in May last year, but it was still so powerful that it shook laser detection devices in the United States and Italy.   Researchers say that the collision of black holes has created a black hole that is 142 times the mass of our sun. This is a very important development. The existence of black holes in the sky has long been known to science, which are either very small in size or very large. However, this new observation marks the beginning of a whole new category of black holes called the average volume. They weigh 100 to 1000 times more than the sun.   This is a joint analysis of Lego and Vergo international organizations. The two companies jointly administer three highly sensitive ...
