They also did not have coal, oil or an adequate supply of wood in the most developed regions. The area around Tombouctou is littered with pottery and bloomery slag a thousand years old, more than could be produced with the supply of trees in the region today. There was a city there bigger than London in the 10th Century. Their ecconomy collapsed because their environment did.
incase you haven't noticed, but Africa is the socio-economic and developmental armpit of the planet Earth.
Thats because europeans murdered millions of afrikans from 1500 and brought the continent to its knees with forced labour, deportation and whole sale massacres.
Europeans also brutally colonized India, Ireland, and yet these countries are light years ahead of Africa. why is that?
because they didnt colonize ireland or india., thats why ireland is run by irish and india is run by indians. the europeans left those places but remain in afrika. why is that?
afrika is not a country - - - Updated - - - Nope, the british didnt colonize ireland. it was the irish going back to ireland, different thing.
millions of Afrikans were murdered by europeans. many westerners have been indoctrinated by european racists to ignore this part of history and in so doing, totally deny millions were murdered. this is a serious case of mental illness that many europeans have been been victim of. its called racism, it is the the only card in satans pack.
its pretty absurd and ignorant historical revisionism, to say Ireland was never colonized or conquered by the British.
it was invaded by ancient homo sapiens tens of thousands of years ago. Ireland is not part of Great Britain. They are not Irish. Next you'll tell us all of Noah's sons were black African/Negro.
the irish are predominantly brits meaning brythonic, some irish are vikings, the real barbarians who colonized ireland. the brits merely wanted their land back.
my family is irish, you should stick to alaska as you clearly know nothing about briton. The irish are practically the original brits, that title goes to the welsh. the welsh and irish are brothers and these two make up what is british heritage.
