I am never convinced of any truth to these claims. We went from kingdom to kingdom throwing around gold but he has no lasting world impact, no power or advancement of his people recorded outside a few education centers that didn't seem to become long lasting. There really was never proof he was all that rich, especially compared to a Persian, Han or Roman Emperor. Seems like he went on a faith based trip to Vegas and flaunted his wealth everywhere, but who knows how much he really had.

I think people forget that lands and control over people is also wealth, Most Dictators are wealthy beyond dreams, Putin is prob the richest man simply because he holds control of a vast land and it's people rich & poor and their assets.
Also Mansa Musa held a small portion of land compared to Roman Emperors which held absolute power over their terrotiries & peoples.

Recent research has revealed that the richest person of all time lived in the 14th century in West Africa and went by many names, including Kankan Musa Keita, Emir of Melle, Lord of the Mines of Wangara, Conqueror of Ghanata and the Lion of Mali II, but today he is usually referred to as Mansa Musa.

Richest man is a different game. You can compare Crassus, Octavian that had most money in an important system or John Rockefeller, Jacob Fugger if we are talking about civilians. Rotschild family included. Maybe even Putin as a leader today, man has 1/9 of the planet as his playground.

Sigh, Mansa Mussa wasn't the richest man to live. He wasn't even the richest man living in his era. Estimates of Mussas wealth is in the hundreds of billions (around 400 billion) while Genghis Kahn is estimated in the hundreds of trillions.

he searched for Mecca through trade routes, everybody knows it: entering a Golden Age permanently grants 1 Trade Route Trade Route capacity, and he had plenty of gold to be in a permanent golden age.

No one can truly say who was the biggest this that. You'd assume but we do know for sure that America is the biggest lying hypocrite killer in history.

I am surprised the Spanish or Portugues or another greedy euro didn't invade and steal all the gold. Thinking the Aztecs, Inkas, etc.
