and the Middle East
Wasn't it the whole interventionism and British French domination?
depends which timeline u r talking about
The Ottoman Empire was pretty in tune with European Empries including even decriminalizing Christianity,
But then it got split up,
The British-French united the Middle Eastern tribes
who only had tribal identity
And Britian and France kinda launched stuff into a lot of conflict again.
so the eternal anglo and frog told them stfu about tribal identity
Errr.
and focus on ur national identity
That sounds good on paper,
But it doesn't work out.
and it was good
the based iranian shah
Look at Africa,
you're forgetting how fucking large
africa is
Where tribes committed genocide due to these national identities forced on them,
you can fit 3 middle east
into africa
The Middle East is the same thing.
you can fit two west europe into africa
You have Kurds fighting, Assyrians running all over the place, Turks hitting Syria,
the only reason Africa is a shithole
is because of bill gates
Then Arabs, Egyptians, Berbers, etc.
and these "philanthropist" capitalists scumbags
The French-British national borders failed,
Because they didn't take those tribes into account.
nonono
For example the Kurds.
do u realize
Split between Turkey, Iran, Syria and Iraq.
the indian subcontinent
would have been fucked
the indian subcontinent could have been literally balkanized
into 32 different countries
but instead it got split into 3 at the end
The difference is India had a common oppressor and had more compatible ethnic groups.
