In the video game KCD2 by Czech Warhorse Studios set in early 15th century Bohemia, there is a doctor from Mali, Musa, working in King Sigismund's military camp. He takes you on a tour of the camp and complains about Czech people being barbaric and eating unseasoned slop. Was it possible for someone like him to end up there?
>>
>>18449664
Apparently he was inspired by the real life North African explorer Ibn Battuta, but from all the depictions I've seen of him he wasn't black, he was just Nafri. Could it have been possible? Maybe, but extremely doubtful.
>>
>>18449666
Musa is from timbuktu and apparently ended up in the service of the ottomans before somehow ending up in sigismund's court. There were many arab/nafri explorers from my understanding but someone from Mali ending up that close to the king seems impossible. Also hes a muslim lecutring you about allah which seems weird because sigismund fought the Turks and europe hated muslims. Even the cumans are at least Christian so I dont get why they would allow a muslim black dude. Its breaking my immersion hard. At least the Romani and Jews were real groups in that region
>>
>>18449664
It's certainly possible, people existed and traveling that far especially after you reached the Mediterranean would not be anywhere near impossible. Unlikely sure. But my biggest problem is >>18449676


He'd probably keep his mouth shut about Allah and even if a noble or king tolerated his preaching I doubt he'd be so forward about it with most people. Certain;y he'd stfu around clergy
>>
>>18449700
And also he probably would have gone native in terms of dress a loooooooooong time ago. Anything really rare (for the geographic area) he would have pawned off as soon as he realized how the price kept going up the farther he was from home.


Or maybe I got it backwards, maybe local nobles really loved the "look at me I'm foreign and exotic" thing and he would have played it right up to the max dressing like OP's pic.

Niger-Congoids are one of the least likely races to possibly appear in that area.

>There were many arab/nafri explorers from my understanding
there were a couple jews from iberian taiquas most notably ibn yakub or beniami of tudela but they were by no means common sight

in the year of our Lord 2026 it is safe to assume that they know he was white but made him black to push a malicious agenda

I am 90% sure someone made this exact thread around the time the game came out with this exact screenshot and insisted if a black Muslim was hanging out with a bunch of Czechs the Czechs would have immediately gone feral and killed him.

it is historically inaccurate, very few Malians travelled the Mediterranean and those that did travelled the Islamic world, such as Mansa Musa's pilgrimage

it is fairly evident he was put in there due to the pressure to increase "diversity", not a creative decision, since nearly every media company verbatim states this as their goal in order to deflect frivolous discrimination lawsuits sand cancellation

Henry isn't that much of a prude, even to the point of aiding some cumans, the same guys that were hated by everyone in the kingdom, in a quest. So Musa lecturing him about Allah makes sense from a personal point, since, again, Henry isn't the average czech

That's not how AI works, moron
You give them your opinion, if it's supported by the current consensus they'll agree, if it isn't, they'll disagree.

Try telling AI to agree with you that the Mali Empire was poor for exemple, and see how it goes.

>>18450190
You think Mansa Musa, a king in a 14th century Sub-Saharan African country was a white man. You are low IQ and there's nothing you say can make me believe otherwise.

Sure, lol
>>
>>18450281
Musa wasn't the founder of the kingdom, you historically illiterate braindead Sepehr worshipping bottom feeding Eurotroon. Kys asap, both he and Keita (the founder of Malian civilization itself) were described as dark-skinned, Mande, Africans and the latter's descent is locally traced from Bilal according to some oral tradition.

>Why Mansa Musa Was White
Why causes you people to we wuz this hard? It makes sense if you’re black, Native American, or aboriginal. But much of the world has been ruled by whites for the past few hundred years. You don’t need to steal other people’s history when you already have your own.
>>
Dude is trolling.
Mansa Musa was obviously black, as evidence by the fact he accomplished absolutely nothing with all his wealth, and squandered it all to show off in Egypt instead of developing his shithole.

Genetic fallacy. All you had to do OP was prove all the claims the computer made were wrong. What if anon had just copied the computers answers and formatted in a way implying he wrote them? How would you argue against that?
