Mali is coming to Civilization 6 and will have more money than you

With the holidays behind us, the Civilization VI: Gathering Storm civ reveals are dropping once more. Today Mali is unveiled, led by Mansa Musa - supposedly the "richest person in history" thanks to the abundant gold mines Mali enjoyed during his reign. Mali's unique ability is Songs of the Jeli, which grants city centres extra food and faith for adjacent desert and desert hills tiles. Mines will provide less production, but a lot of extra gold - the video shows a mine on a luxury resource producing one cog but a whopping seven coins. Mali can also purchase buildings in their unique commercial hub - the Suguba - with Faith. The Suguba itself will provide discounts to every Faith and Gold purchase made in the host city, and receives major adjacency bonuses from rivers and Holy Sites. Mali's unique unit is Mandekalu Cavalry. It replaces the Knight in the Medieval era, gains gold from kills, and "provides protection to nearby trader units". This means they can't be plundered if within four tiles of Mandekalu Cavalry. Finally, Mansa Musa's leader ability is Sahel Merchants, which will grant you an extra trade route during a Golden Age, and +1 gold per trade route for each desert tile in the origin city. Given Mali's clear desert start bias, this is huge.
