Coastline would be easier but considering the stability of africa whats not to say other coastal nations then attack you to try to get more resources as they see the invaded country as weak now

2019-09-17 16:52:38 UTC  

The problem with many African militaries is that they're primarily intended to be domestic policing forces

2019-09-17 16:52:56 UTC  

True.

2019-09-17 16:53:20 UTC  

And the ones that arent are usually in a constant state of fighting warlords. But that goes back to the eariler point

2019-09-17 16:53:57 UTC  

This isn't the case for the North or East African militaries who are very capable of projecting power beyond their borders

2019-09-17 16:54:05 UTC  

Which countries lol

2019-09-17 16:54:16 UTC  

Execpt liyba rip that place

2019-09-17 16:54:23 UTC  

The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are the Congo and Somalia and those are being wrapped up

2019-09-17 16:54:35 UTC  

True I guess Im thinking of the 70-80

2019-09-17 16:54:42 UTC  

Actually, maybe not for Somalia because Al-Shabaab is yeeting Mogadishu

2019-09-17 16:54:51 UTC  

Libya pretty sure is still a mess though

2019-09-17 16:54:55 UTC  

Thanks mossad

2019-09-17 16:55:04 UTC  

The Congolese insurgencies are strange

2019-09-17 16:55:15 UTC  

They basically die down or become irrelevant within a decade

2019-09-17 16:55:19 UTC  

The Congo is a battle royale.

2019-09-17 16:55:35 UTC  

They've had like 3 Congo wars so far, the first two ones were major IIRC.

2019-09-17 16:55:37 UTC  

So is it three kingdoms nog edition?

2019-09-17 16:55:43 UTC  

The third one is just an insurgency

2019-09-17 16:56:10 UTC  

Just invade the weakest African country. Then one next to that and so on for many years until you hold all the land you can get

2019-09-17 16:56:38 UTC  

That seems like the best way to overextend your military and administration over territory you could just Jew out of the Africans

2019-09-17 16:56:56 UTC  

Which African country do you even have in mind lol

2019-09-17 16:57:08 UTC  

Angola was also a major clusterfuck

2019-09-17 16:57:20 UTC  

The Portuguese were winning in Angola and Mozambique

2019-09-17 16:57:24 UTC  

Fucking Cuban volunteers there as well.

2019-09-17 16:57:33 UTC  

Portugal decided to pull out of Angola.

2019-09-17 16:57:37 UTC  

Leaving South Africa to fight them.

2019-09-17 16:57:37 UTC  

The only insurgency they really had a problem with was either in India or Guinea Bissau

2019-09-17 16:57:55 UTC  

UNITA was also a problem for Angola.

2019-09-17 16:58:06 UTC  

If the Portuguese wanted to hold onto their African holdings, they should've just carved out a state of predominantly Portuguese settlers

2019-09-17 16:58:13 UTC  

Probably somewhere in the northern regions of Angola

2019-09-17 16:58:24 UTC  

The Border War was pretty based too.

2019-09-17 16:58:39 UTC  

Isn't there some type of small insurgency in Cebu

2019-09-17 16:58:45 UTC  

Or do they just want independence

2019-09-17 16:58:56 UTC  

I doubt it

2019-09-17 16:59:23 UTC  

I just love how the southern regions of Africa are always a mess lol

2019-09-17 16:59:31 UTC  

Fair enough lmao

2019-09-17 16:59:41 UTC  

I think Botswana's the only country doing fine down there

2019-09-17 16:59:46 UTC  

The Rhodesian Bush War was an F for Rhodesia.

2019-09-17 16:59:49 UTC  

It's usually the countries you never hear about lol

2019-09-17 16:59:55 UTC  

Thanks to the (((Anglo)))

2019-09-17 17:00:12 UTC  

South Africa was also left on its own to fight Angolans.
