No. Only if places like Rhodesia still existed would they be anywhere close to Europe,
Of course, if Europe keeps letting the flood of immigrants in it might be brought low enough to be on par.

What if white folks moved there? American Africans. Culture pip pip

Rhodesia wasn't really a paradise, though it had more to do with the sanctions against them.

Yep! Probably basketball and maybe even soccer, but definitely track! (Because of that extra muscle, you know)

Pan-Africanism is a lie. They are tribal to the core. There’s a reason that 90% of subsaharan Africa is run by warlords and dictators. Why those places taken over by them slip into degradation and destruction.
The reason is poverty
You see this on a smaller scale in the urban ghettos of the world where thugs are idolized. Gang leaders prey on downtrodden youth who feel powerless and are angry at their station in life. Most gangs are locally affililiated much like tribes.
Gangs give powerless youth purpose and security not otherwise provided to them by education and wealth

I had a British co-worker in Cameroon and his background on his work computer was a 67 sign. The average IQ for Cameroon.

That sounds fine given post industrial times influence on Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa pre industrial times was in the stone age. This is as late as the 1880's. Why would you expect so much from such an early/ uncivilized culture that lacks iron and coal?
There was a movement of the acs (American colonization society) in the 1820's that predicted the end of slavery and sought to establish a new homeland for the inevitable free black population that would suddenly arise. Their goal was to relocate these free blacks in western Africa (modern day Liberia.)

To be fair, I live in Louisiana, the 12th of all the United States of Africa.

I'm certainly not saying it would be easy. In fact it would take both a political movement and war that would rival WWII. One simple victorian society could have never forced the changes neccessary to achieve unity

Gaddafi tried, they killed him for it...
Well, they more whacked him because he wanted a unified African backed gold currency and was going to put Euro telemarketing countries out of business
...but it had to do with aa United States of Africa
quote:
In February 2009, upon being elected chairman of the 53-nation African Union in Ethiopia, Gaddafi told the assembled African leaders: "I shall continue to insist that our sovereign countries work to achieve the United States of Africa."[6] The BBC reported that Gaddafi had proposed "a single African military force, a single currency and a single passport for Africans to move freely around the continent". Other African leaders stated they would study the proposal's implications, and re-discuss it in May 2009

No, would never happen. Dark skinned people hate dark skinned people more than anyone.

I'm trying to figure out how that bong works.
It looks like a little bong on a big bong, then he pulls the carb on the little bong yet smokes the big bong.
It's a little bong used as a bowl for a bigger bong. It's stupid and makes no sense. Just like this thread.

laugh at people who blow that money on those bongs. No bong in the world hits more than a gravity bong.
Gravity bongs can be harsh as frick. Triple percolator laser slit with a bubble cooling laser slit stem and a sizable ice catcher filled with canes tiny ice is much smoother. But I'm not 18 anymore, so i have no idea what kids and stupid college kids are doing now.
A vape pen with the ability to dial in a specific temperature is a life changing invention.

A pretty shitty and ignorant statement. You're essentially equating all black people worldwide to the black poor here in the US.
I agree with you that there are too many citizens living lazy, welfare funded lives in the USA but that does not mean a full continent of 1.2B people live by those same flawed values.
