It is a vast, vast continent with unimaginable resources. Keeping them behind the rest of us allows the world to rape them. Put them on our level, and the daimonds industry would collapse on itself. Various other natural resources would be put in the hands of the locals. Aint gonna happen as long as some people currently in power have anything to say about it. By the way, some of these people who are in power; are in power in Africa. $$$$$$ I consider africa is used as a worlds defeat boy. It is a vast, immeasurable continent with unthinkable resources. Keeping them at a back of a rest of us allows a universe to rape them. Put them upon a level, as well as a daimonds attention would fall upon itself. Various alternative healthy resources would be put in a hands of a locals. Aint gonna occur as prolonged as a little people now in energy have anything to contend about it. By a way, a little of these people who have been in power; have been in energy in Africa. $$$$$$

In some other parts of the world (such as parts of Korea) although the country was used for goods, the imperial countries also built up things in Korea such as roads, water systems, etc . which left Korea able to fend for itself and prosper once the imperial country left. Africa was basically left with everything a mess...pollution, the land stripped, racial tensions caused by arbitrary segregation of tribal peoples by European Imperialists, and the like. Because Africa was exploited as a source of poor materials as well as labor, as well as after colonial imperialism finished a nation was left in shambles. In a little alternative tools of a universe (such as tools of Korea) nonetheless a nation was used for goods, a majestic countries additionally built up things in Korea such as roads, H2O systems, etc . that left Korea means to deflect for itself as well as pullulate once a majestic nation left. Africa was fundamentally left with all a mess…pollution, a land stripped, secular tensions caused by capricious separation of genealogical peoples by European Imperialists, as well as a like.

As previously stated, the resources of Africa, including the people (slaves) were eploited. At this time there was not much development in technology in Africa so once the colonies were let go, the various tribes and peoples had to fend for themselves/decide what to do/how to live/how to make a living. Not given experiences/opportunity = won't learn/know other possibilities Several points/reasons: 1. With the colonization by Europeans their lives were interrupted and social development somewhat delayed. 2. Although the Europeans had colonized some of Africa, there were many diverse tribes, so not everyone was exposed to the Europeans 3. There were missionaries but not many so not all were given education, nor did the Europeans think it important. - So where could it come from? 3. After Europe released its hold on its African colonies the natives had to start over/find some way to live/support their families. 4. They had experienced a culture which had used force to control them 5. Agriculture is an important resource for the country, so someone has to grow the food, someone has to sell it. Leaves less room for being interested in technology. 6. Not much money = Little education/literacy = ignorance of health/hygene = not many doctors = many die of disease. 7. Potental leaders or world-changers die from disease as children 8. Some parts are not interested in industry, others are, education is usually needed but not much education is recieved, most would have to leave home/country/continent for education, need money. 9. Different ideas on what should/has to be done to survive. Several different countries/peoples. There is a Very Big difference between Japan and Africa. Africa is a large continent = many countries = many isolated tribes of people live within the counries. (May be isolated by choice or not) Japan does not have many resources - not much land to grow food, but surrounded by the sea so it had to resort to something to prosper.~technology/ business. There are so many factors that affect what's going on. Something major enogh to unite the people might cause change. You think of Africa a backwards? That's harsh. What about Afghanistan? Afghanistan's development has been delayed because of war. Look back at Africa, there is war, there are those who do not want to change from their traditional way of living, food has to be grown to survive. Japan entered WW II as a unified nation after having years of civil/feudal wars. By focusing on WW II, Japan was somewhat united. One of the reasons on entering the war was to become less dependant on other contries, so they decided to control other countries. Also, did not want Japan to be controlled by other countries. After realizing defeat, a new government and policies were installed, Japan had to be careful from then on while occupied by US forces; needed to focus on repairing the country. The industrial series did begin most of a European colonies, however, a anwers go behind to a colonial durations (or earlier). As formerly stated, a resources of Africa, together with a people (slaves) were eploited. At this time there was not most growth in record in Africa so once a colonies were let go, a assorted tribes as well as peoples had to deflect for themselves/decide what to do/how to live/how to have a living.
Not since experiences/opportunity = won’t learn/know alternative possibilities

Several points/reasons:
1. With a colonization by Europeans their lives were interrupted as well as amicable growth rather delayed.
2. Although a Europeans had colonized a little of Africa, there were most opposite tribes, so not everybody was unprotected to a Europeans
3. There were missionaries though not most so not all were since education, nor did a Europeans consider it important. – So where could it come from?
3. After Europe expelled a reason upon a African colonies a locals had to begin over/find a little approach to live/support their families.
4. They had gifted a enlightenment which had used force to carry out them
5. Agriculture is an critical apparatus for a country, so someone has to grow a food, someone has to sell it. Leaves reduction room for being meddlesome in technology.
6. Not most income = Little education/literacy = stupidity of health/hygene = not most doctors = most die of disease.
7. Potental leaders or world-changers die from mildew as children
8. Some tools have been not meddlesome in industry, others are, preparation is customarily indispensable though not most preparation is recieved, most would have to leave home/country/continent for education, need money.
9. Different ideas upon what should/has to be finished to survive. Several opposite countries/peoples.

There is a Very Big disproportion in between Japan as well as Africa.
Africa is a vast continent = most countries = most removed tribes of people live inside of a counries. (May be removed by preference or not)
Japan does not have most resources – not most land to grow food, though surrounded by a sea so it had to review to something to prosper.~technology/ business.

There have been so most factors which begin what’s starting on.
Something vital enogh to combine a people competence means change.

You consider of Africa a backwards? That’s harsh. What about Afghanistan? Afghanistan’s growth has been behind since of war. Look behind during Africa, there is war, there have been those who do not wish to shift from their normal approach of living, food has to be grown to survive.

Japan entered WW II as a one republic after carrying years of civil/feudal wars. By focusing upon WW II, Japan was rather united. One of a reasons upon entering a fight was to turn reduction dependant upon alternative contries, so they motionless to carry out alternative countries. Also, did not wish Japan to be tranquil by alternative countries. After realizing defeat, a latest supervision as well as policies were installed, Japan had to be clever from afterwards upon whilst assigned by US forces; indispensable to concentration upon repair a country.
