I understand the fact that the slave trade and colonisation highly affected the continent, but fact is African countries weren’t the only ones affected by that so it still puzzles me as to why African nations have failed to spring up like the Super power nations we have today

Aids, warlords, government corruption, mosquitos, getting a late start on industrialization. People blame the West but I don’t think that’s always true. South Africa fucked themselves after apartheid ended, partially by not investing in utilities infrastructure. Liberia was actually founded by former US slaves who kind of became the new masters and then their government did a few loopdy loops with some coups. Actually coups and chaotic governments abound in Africa cuz someone can sell out their people for a bunch of money. I guess you can blame the West and China for being the source of the money.
