    Default Why aren't there any successful Black nations?

    They really can't play the race card or the slavery card like they can here. I like to hear some real reasons on why they never dominated the world like whites, Romans, Greeks, Spanish and the Chinese.

    You would think there would be some pimp ass Black dude in history like Napoleon, Genghis Khan or even a Da Vinci.



    Blacks don't know how good they have it till they see what goes on at home.

    Mansa Musa of Mali was the richest man of all time

    also, Ethiopia had a decent thing going on before the modern age.

    Now as for your question, there's a lot of factors making for a bad situation, though some of the things are still inexcusable. Imperialism, corrupt politics, ethnic tensions, are all valid reasons...but it isn't a pass. Maybe in our lifetime, the situation will get better for them. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem likely.

    If they haven't made it in the past centuries, there is no way to do it unless foreign money helps them.

    It seems I have sparked borderline racist topics on ISH.

    I run this system. I'M THE MAN.

    Foreign aid isn't going to do shit if it's mismanaged or flat out stolen due to corruption.

    Realistically, my expectation for the future of Africa is for foreign powers to attempt to gain influence in various regions. China is doing this with some success. I wonder if we'll ever see a return to what happened in the late 19th and early 20th century (open imperialism)

    Because many black people unlike Indians and Orientals realize that white people will do all the work for you and some of them will even think you are cool while they do it.

    More power to em. African American culture is a powerful thing. Black people in other places? Same thing just don't have the luxury of being American citizens so it's only when really bad shit goes down that they come in and save the day.

    I agree but there are too much differences for them to agree and help one another out. Most of these Black nations are purely out for themselves. Nigeria doesn't give a shit about Ghana or the Congo. Tons of black on black hating.

    They need to form a good educational system but they don't have much history to teach. They never cared or documented their shit.

    Hilarious how you keep bashing other nations and it's people, you are from Bulgaria, one of the most poor and under developed European countries. In fact, over 20% of the Bulgarians are living under the poverty line.

    You're such a clown.
