I think about this a lot as well. How did Europe and North America, and most of Asia of South America overcome corruption enough to make functional systems of government but Africa can not.

If you go identify the poorest, most undeveloped or underdeveloped countries or regions in the world you will notice they were not colonized 100's of years ago.

The greatest thing that ever happened for technological and civilized progress was the colonization of lands.

It’s not all mud huts. There are modern cities by western standards, like Nairobi.

This was asked on Reddit last week.

The popular answer was corruption.

Corruption learned from white folks during colonization.


So now I know that shite isn’t accurate.

Some smart dudes did a paper on IQ. Their findings got squashed. Pretty sure I'd get banned if I found it, and posted it.

Common consensus amongst archeologists and anthropologist is, we all originated from Sub-Saharan Africa.

Why, in the ENTIRE history of humans is, there has never been a group of people there that has evolved beyond hunters and gatherers......well except for Wakanda.

There are still hunter gatherer tribes in South America.

Modern civilization in South America is due to European colonization. It was basically identical to Africa before that.
