africa could catch up in development in the next 20 years :/

<:Doubt:588038713938804760>

Hell, with the sheer amount of shit that China's helping with (specifically infrastructure)

in Africa

It'll probably be rather quick TBH

lore - im not saying its not with artificial crutches

They havent caught up in the past century and we’ve been there for that long, I doubt collapsing China could bring them up to speed

China had very little outside intervention by European powers for most of the time that it was a thing, and still managed to only be a few centuries behind

(likely because it wasn't a bunch of fucking tribes at that point, and hadn't been a bunch of fucking tribes for over a thousand years)

and once they started trading with europeans... it only took them a few years to catch up and have trains and modern military and large trading ports etc

sorry thats more for japan than chine *

Hell, Japan was fucking behind SO fucking much

china*

they had like...16th century guns in the 19th century?

FUCK KROGAN GOT BANNED

Whomstvnt?

and after a total of like....50 years (so by like...1900-1915), they had a more powerful Navy than China

Ok

(utterly curbstomping them in the First Sino-Japanese War, to the extent that they pretty much BROKE China for a decades to come)

Ok

@livid_scrooge

Hahahaahahahahahahahhahahhaahahahah, no. I’m asexual

Asexuality is a mental illness

No science to back that up

Science isn't required

Try again sweetie

Only my word.

Asexuality isn't the normal state of a human or animal

therefore, mental illness

Again, no science

animals have an innate desire to fuck and procreate

I’m off my break, so goodbye!

(it's literally hardwired into them)

>break
>like 2 minutes

Jesus, where are you, China?

It was 30
