6 ч 13 мин, 1 янв 1324 г. - Pilgramige to Mecca
Описание:
Mansa Musa was a Muslim, and so in 1324 he took the traditional pilgrimage to Mecca and other holy Islam sites. He didn't do it in an ordinary fashion though, he went there with hundreds of men and camels carrying hundreds of tons of gold and riches. He spent and donated so much money to cities along the way that they took years to recover from the mass inflation it caused. This journey caused him to be included in the 1375 Catalan Atlas, a very important map of Medieval Europe.
