One word can sum it up: exploitation
By literally everyone. Including themselves. Currently, the Chinese are pillaging their villages.

If you could read a history book rather than take in dumb information from dip shvts like Nick Fuentes then you would understand.

Well…. Mansas.
Mansa Musa was the richest man in human history. He single handedly crashed the economy in Egypt during his hajj with the amount of gold he took with him and gave away.
He was also the very first African king to be depicted on any European maps, and his wealth was a primary driving force in Europeans eyeing sub Saharan Africa.
Then shite hit the fanz
You can see homeboy Musa holding his gold coin at the bottom of the map.

Seems densely populated to me.
Africa will continue to suffer due to corruption.

No offense, but you’re an idiot. And the worst part is you’re so stupid you’ve fooled yourself into thinking you are smart.

The brightest ones escaped. Geography isn't kind to sub saharan Africa.
Africans are extremely proud of where they come from and they support each other like America used to do. Their communities here in the US are one of the best to be a part of.

Don’t know who the frick Nick Fuentes is but I’ve read more than a few books on Africa and there’s a very chance that I’ve spent more time on the continent than anyone else in this thread.

The Chinese are evil. they finance shitty projects knowing the host nation will be unable to pay it back, and the take ownership.
They've financed quite a few projects in the Caribbean and S. America too.

It has plenty. We as western society tend to just not pay attention to it or prioritize it.
Ethiopia for example was a major trade center in the ancient world, connecting India to the medeterrainian. You never really hear too much about it.
shite Ethiopia is referenced in the Bible in the book of Genesis.

How cute, a fan boy of a Disney series with a kindergarten level plot complexity responds to a rebuttal like a child.

I talk to a few online, seem like great people. Their leadership is cashing out though.
African girls seem like American women decades ago.

So if European mass migrations and countless wars never happened, where would it be population wise? Are y’all just going to ignore that?

You can't really have history without a written language.

What would you like to know about it? Slave trade, colonialism, exploitation? There’s a long history of all of that.
