If colonialism had not taken place, I hate to think what those countries would be like today. They all seem to start declining once evil whitey’s influence is jettisoned.

I wonder. One of the sins of the colonial powers is that they drew boundaries without regard to tribal lands. So now we have African countries where different tribes are forced together. Sort of like forcing 1900 Germany and 1900 France into the same country. Not a good thing.

And that’s not the fault of the Africans.
