yes, they did

Africans failed to maintain it

And they will fail again

With China

The europeans would have also left some sort of state.

in many cases, they did fail to maintain it

Kek

So the Africans would have had all these things.

they certainly failed to maintain the state structures

They failed because they could not resist imperialism after colonization.

Guess it was real

China could resist it after the Communist revolution.

IM COOOOOOOOOOOMIN

Why did America

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

I'll tell you why

Japan failed to resist imperialism as well, but was able to develop?

Cause they white

Africa's attempts at socialism failed, because it got crushed by the US and allies during the Cold War.

Lol

there is a difference between having millions of people and your own capital and cities developed over thousands of years to serve a regional empire, vs some tools that the europeans brought over for the express purpose of exploiting your country

Maybe their attempt at socialism failed because it always fails everywhere it’s tried

boomer take

that being said, they mostly squandered what we left them

probably because they have low IQs

@Nerthulas, unless the Euros took the tools with them...

you can't take a railroad

Then it's back to genetics.

its both

It is

But both is genes

sub-saharan africans are not good at creating or maintaining to a civilization, all it's trappings, and everything it entails, to the standards that other populations are capapble of. you can see this in the diaspora as well

@BabygottBach How was Japan able to develop even though they failed to resist imperialism?

Africa was geopolitically fucked for a revolution.

Japan resisted imperialism much more effectively than China did

@iippo, as a bulwark to commie china
