(2015 · Northern India, & ~1273- ~1330 CE · Baghdad, Cairo, Baghdad, & Timbuktu)
The Narrator finishes his game of famous Muslims unknown to most Westerners with the tale of Mansa Musa, an emperor who gave away so much gold on his pilgrimage to Mecca that he flooded the Eastern Mediterranean with the precious commodity, deflating its market value and crashing the economy of medieval Egypt.
Based on the second half of Chapter 10 of End by Geoff Micks.
