True.

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

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

Which countries lol

Execpt liyba rip that place

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

True I guess Im thinking of the 70-80

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

Libya pretty sure is still a mess though

Thanks mossad

The Congolese insurgencies are strange

They basically die down or become irrelevant within a decade

The Congo is a battle royale.

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

So is it three kingdoms nog edition?

The third one is just an insurgency

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

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

Which African country do you even have in mind lol

Angola was also a major clusterfuck

The Portuguese were winning in Angola and Mozambique

Fucking Cuban volunteers there as well.

Portugal decided to pull out of Angola.

Leaving South Africa to fight them.

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

UNITA was also a problem for Angola.

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

Probably somewhere in the northern regions of Angola

The Border War was pretty based too.

Isn't there some type of small insurgency in Cebu

Or do they just want independence

I doubt it

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

Fair enough lmao

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

The Rhodesian Bush War was an F for Rhodesia.

It's usually the countries you never hear about lol

Thanks to the (((Anglo)))

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

And Namibian insurgents.

The Rhodesians were British
