C) it was the first encounter that Europeans had with an African ruler. D) Mansa Musa traveled all over Africa and Asian serving as an Islamic judge.

I'd say the correct answers are three:

A) it introduced Islam into West Africa for the first time.

B) it demonstrated the tremendous wealth of the Mali empire.

C) it was the first encounter that Europeans had with an African ruler.

Explanation:

Mansa Musa came to power in 1312 and his reign would be marked by an important growth for the region; economic, social and religious, because Mansa Musa was a devout Muslim who promoted this faith in his Empire and spread throughout his territory mosques, madrasas (schools), as well as an important urbanization.

The Empire of Mali was located in what is now northern Guinea and southern Mali. At its height, it had a population of 50 million, made up of a large number of ethnic groups. The strength of the Empire is said to have been due to the decentralization of state administration, and it was also the Empire that reached the largest African territory and retained it the longest.

Mansa Musa was the driving force behind the economic and knowledge boom in the city of Timbuktu. In it, the Sankore University, which exists until today, stands out especially.

As a devout Muslim, his trip to Mecca was an important moment for him. It is precisely this journey that made the name of Mansa Musa cross the Mediterranean and reached the ears of European merchants, historians and builders. The first ones, by the way, extended their commercial routes to Timbuktu, which generated an important exchange with the Empire.

The journey of the Mansa is recorded in the year 1325 and it would take a full year to reach its destination and return to its city. Many things have been written about this trip, because in different oral and written sources, impressive details were recorded that seem to exceed reality.

It is said that during the trip, Mansa Musa built a mosque every Friday and gave generous gifts to the poor of coins and gold dust. By the way, this fact is pointed out as the cause of the devaluation of this metal and an economic destabilization that impacted even a decade later.

Thus, as we can see, this ruler of the Empire of Mali had a great influence on West Africa; his actions and his wealth transcended in such a way that by 1375, in the Catalan Atlas, the Empire of Mali appears represented by the very Mansa Musa holding a gold nugget in his hand as a sign of his wealth. This wealth was not only material, as we can see, but also a deep impulse to the Muslim tradition, of knowledge, architecture and African culture that, some time later, would be disrupted by the fall of the Empire of Mali and the European invasions.

when a country suffers, for example, a drought period, the market product is affected for a low offer, in this case, potatoes; the government has to tax to the households, which have to give more money for the potatoes which they consume, that situation make them consume substitute goods even through loans, it could increase the financial market movement and the inflationary phenomena, the business has to increase salaries in order to the employees could buy a more expensive food (potatoes) and in order to inflation tha business had to buy expensive supplies in the factor market, while the rest of the world have to gain more money to consume the same amount of potatoes.

i believe the correct answer is b.
