carriers of the sickle cell gene, whether aysmptomatic or symptomatic, are resistant to malaria. that gene is overwhelmingly carried by subsaharan africans and hardly at all by europeans. malaria is deadly and used to be way deadlier. do the math

Your telling me that throughout that all that time there wasn't a single european colonists that considered throwing men into a disease infested warzone where all the colonists would go to fight and die in was a bad idea that was getting obviously too expensive and that backtracking out of to establish trade relations rather than invasions was a much more sustainable and sensible plan???

you said it yourself, africa was largely iron age. trade with locals was possible (and much trade of gold, ivory, slaves did go on) but limited by local technology. direct extraction turned out over time to be the more lucrative option though more difficult as well, and it was not only the difficulty that delayed colonization, but also the fact that colonization didn't really need to expand quickly until well into the 19th century when economic competition picked up and the financial sector grew.

Okay but why the 19th century, I can understand what happened with trusts and the industrial revolution but when you consider how underdeveloped most of Europe's land actually was back then and how little of it is still used to this day venturing far out into africa to establish a colonial empire feels unnecessary…

both world wars resulted in socialist revolutions (specifically in the worst-hit countries), so you're partly proving my point. but my deeper point is that such a thing can only happen because nation-states have developed. europe only had nation-states in the modern sense since the 18th century. africa, only since the 1960s.

I keep reading about a TPLF complete victory in Ethiopia and about plans to expand in Sudan and Eritrea on their part.
Can someone explain me what the fuck is happening?

Tplf is a foreign funded militia bent on destabilizing and turning Ethiopia into somalia. Organization gets destroyed swiftly by Abiy Ahmed, western media seethes and starts promoting false narratives of a war or genocide in tigray(honestly they'll seethe over anything anti globalist) abiy continues fighting off militants in neighboring countries in east africa and likewise more borders start opening for trade in east africa and likewise ethiopia gains more political and economic power as it gains more land

I only read an anticommunist book about him. It claimed he had close relations to the socialist camp (compared to his nephew who would become a Washington bootlicker), and well, his daughter (and other relatives) lived in the DPRK after he was executed.
If someone has books about him, it would be apreciated.

If kenya actually grew its economy and the material conditions of Kenyans improved after taking in the most Somali refugees why didnt sweden and France see the same rapid industrial and societal growth by importing muslim refugees?

Are you suggesting Kenya improved because it took in refugees? That doesn't make much sense.

>Are you suggesting Kenya improved because it took in refugees?
Yes refugees and migrants naturally add to the labour supply of a given economy and can fulfill low skill positions like mining, digging and low skill trades like brick building. America and Germany is one of the biggest examples of where importing migrants and refugees can improve the material conditions of a population overall

>kenyans take in the most somalis
if I'm correct the Somali civil war lasted for over 3 decades. If that's true that means that every year since 1990 kenyans have been importing an estimated 200 thousand somalis each fucking year… how do they handle immigration so well compared to here in italy where muslims keep committing crime and our politicians either want 0 border restrictions or 0 immigration completely with no in between???

It's probably worth mentioning that the eastern part of Kenya was already mostly ethnic Somalis (the two countries fought a war in the 60s over the territory, since Somalia believed it was part of the Somali homeland), so the refugees are moving into a culture which is basically the same as the one at home, meaning it should be easy for them to integrate.

Propaganda, tplf died quite a while ago. Abiy ahmed did 1 thing in particular expanding ethiopia into eritrea and deporting ethnic eritreans into spain. Pissed off a shit ton of muslims in the process and now ethiopia deals with anti Ethiopian sentiment from its neighbors regularly except for kenya and somalia

Kenya on the other hand is more stable but still is in a breakneck speed population growth phase which along with a huge Somali and (if the State collpase) migration influx could become a problem for them.

I used to view China's involvement in Africa positively, because China made deals with African countries that were actually helpful for the long term development of these countries, more so than whatever the West offered Africa. Additionally, the West being a scummy piece of shit region of the planet that shamelessly spreads lies about its own self-alleged altruism while exploiting most of the planet, made me side with China in an almost contrarian fashion. I found out a while ago that the headquarters of the African Union that was built by China was also bugged and information on servers was secretly sent to China. My heart is broken. I feel cheated on. I'm being melodramatic for fun, but it does sort of feel that way.

To be fair, that claim could be glowie shit, there's no real evidence, but either way, China is not altruistic, they invest in Africa because they think they have something to gain from it, but that doesn't mean they will be worse for Africa than the status quo.

Of course, China is doing it because they stand to gain from it. If the HQ was bugged and had back doors in the servers than that is pretty fucked up though.

Hey I was reading about the Seychelles and noticed this guy, a socialist ruler who made his country the most developed in Africa. So why do we never hear about it? Seems a good example of successful socialism to me

His name is France Albert Rene btw.
His irrelevance is actually caused by the fact that Seychelles is just a rather politically insignificant country in the middle of the Indian Ocean.
But he’s based though. Mercenaries were thwarted in order to bring the former leader back, back in 1981.
