Africa is probably a wash. Indigenous African culture is over 1000 (or more) years behind Europe and Asia and maybe they prefer it that way.

Well more than 1000 years. Indigenous Africa culture is far behind the Romans, Phoenicians, Carthaginians, and even the ancient Egyptians and Sumerians.

Also it’s amazing how the Aztecs, Incans & Mayans had actual societies and infrastructure but the North American Indians built nothing but some cliff dwellings and burial mounds. An absolute Stone Age society, if you can even call it that.

Ask Haiti how it’s doing without those mean Europeans.


In defense of Haiti, no country did business with them after the revolution. No trade, commerce, nothing. They were left completely on their own.

know that, but it’s widely known and accepted, that European colonists stripped them of their resources.

It’s hilarious that you think Europeans were able to strip all of Africa’s resources in a couple hundred years. You consistently have some of the most ignorant and moronic takes on this board

I think you mean they were free from the evils of the white devils. Hence they were not corrupted and made Wakanda East.
