Can someone explain the differences between regions of Africa? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3952681&forum_id=2#35866159) |

it's not as simple as "regional differences." the entire continent had arbitrary european colonial borders (from like 6 or 7 different empires) imposed over pre-existing tribal political boundaries/regions. these new "states" then gained independence at different times and in different ways (sometimes violent), and many were still exploited afterwards by glocap depending on whatever natural resources happened to be around (diamonds, chocolate, oil...)
i mean it really is no wonder the place is so fucked up. |

Date: April 18th, 2018 9:37 AM Author: blue digit ratio kitty cat brits seemed to set up real communities in the countries they colonized, rather than just do enough to extract resources and rape the land.
on the other end of the spectrum, belgium ran congo as a purely for profit corporation with no regard at all for the state of play on the ground or the people.
the other examples seemed to fall somewhere in between |

Date: April 18th, 2018 9:37 AM Author: Nubile passionate theater stage knife The Brits encouraged a lot of participation in colonial governance on the part of the Africans. The Portuguese ruled through a mixed race elite. The French and Belgians ran things themselves and had little contact with their subjects. So when independence came, some of these places had a local native elite that could take over while others descended right back into anarchy.

The Brits also brought in Indians to Africa to do various shit, run businesses, etc. |

Date: April 18th, 2018 9:31 AM Author: Orange Vivacious Gas Station I dunno but it seems colonialism was ended for "Christian" reasons, namely that an African person is equally a child of God and should be understood to have equal dignity, equal rights to self-government, and equal responsibility as a European person.
Wonderful idea, but it has led to the complete destruction of Africa. Bewildering how the worst aspects of Christianity survived as progressivism while the best aspects were abandoned.
A non-Christian empire, like China, will have to come in and ruthlessly colonize Africa again if it is not to drag down the entire planet with its 5 billion people. |

Basically, East Africans are thought to have more Caucasian/Arab mixture due to the Nile and the Red Sea making it easier to get past the Sahara. West and Central Africans were more isolated and are more "pure black". (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3952681&forum_id=2#35871533) |
