The Muslim empire not only dominated the world politically, militarily and scientifically, it was also the economic powerhouse that tied together Europe, Asia and Africa.  This abundance of wealth spurred the growth of Architecture, Science, Commerce and the spread of Arab-Muslim culture.  In fact, the largest Muslim populations in the world today were converted through trade, rather than conquest.  In this episode, we look at what made this economic system special.
