Do you honestly think 50 years is enough time to econimically rise from the exploitations of colonialism given the circumstances of the continent?

 

Walk a mile in their shoes is an idiom that I feel you should highly consider.

Look at India. Granted that has been nearly 70 years, and they still have a long way to go. But give it a decade or two, it'll be where China is right now. But do you believe most African states will be in that position in 10-15 years anyway? It has a long way to go, and Europe cannot be blamed forever for their misfortune.

Like my country Brazil. India and China have a lot of Land Territory and the territory is fertile, In those countries you throw a seed onto the ground and it grow alone, in Africa is very harsh to make resources, and the European countries took a lot of Diamonds from Africa, The Diamond that the Queen of England uses (i think that is the biggest one in the world) came from Africa.
