>>12322131Nice cope. All these things happened everywhere, colonization or not. Every continent had it's resources drained and it's populace exploited and oppressed by a small group of people. Poverty was just as harmful in Europe as it was in Africa.
But some people were able to fight off their oppressors and build a better society for themselves, and some were not. But westerners had to fight and build by themselves to get what they have, while Africans got a lot of support that they mostly squandered.
You can also compare with Korea, who was treated very poorly by the Japanese colonizers, who had to suffer through WWIi and the Korean war (hundreds of thousands killed, deportations, refugees...), ended up extremely poor. They are now first world. Why couldnt africa achieve that ? Does it have something to do with the korean 105 average IQ ?
>>12322208In Africa there's Ethiopia and Liberia, 38th and 41st in human development index among the 53 african countries. The top scorers are the north African countries with white-ish people, especially Algeria which was annexed by France, not just colonized, and South Africa with its long period of white supremacy and sizable white population.
