The post-colonial population growth in these countries is only part of the issue. Some grew others declined. What truly matters is the current living conditions of the people. Colonization left a lasting impact, disrupting many countries, and some of these nations are still bound by exploitative contracts that maintain their dependence on former colonizers. France, in particular, has been known for its involvement in this.
While it's true that these countries bear some responsibility for improving their own living conditions, it's important to recognize that many Western nations have a vested interest in perpetuating corrupt governments in these regions for their own benefit. This dynamic complicates the development and progress of these nations, as external factors play a significant role in hindering their growth.
Kid claimed she barely survived a holocaust done by the french. algerian population data dont back that up. not post-colonial. not colonial. not pre-colonial.
Of course the french did and do a lot of shit. But point out the french when they do the same as everyone is stupid.
colonialism isnt good or bad. there are two sides to it. like it is with everything in live.
Peoply, country, ressources allways get exploited. be it the colonists or local rulers. colonisation happen whenever two civilisations met and one is heavily underdeveloped in certain categories.
brithish, french, russians had been the same as the arabs or romans prior to them. or chinese, aztecs, babylonians and persians prior to them.
If under the former local ruler all women and half the men had basicly been slaves. which was the case for many indian, african and american nations, kingdoms, tribes. than the french, british whatever colonial rule brough a big improvement for many. Even if they still got treated as second class citizen it was the first time many people had at least some basic rights.
Japanese colonialism in korea was brutal and koreans got treaded badly. Compaired to the joseon dynasty it was still an improvement for the female population and 40% of the male population.
If British colonialists stop local indian tradition like sati. is that good or is that bad? or did it depend on the point of view?
Independend Countries are responsible for themself. Biggest company in Africa is Algerian company sonatrach. its responsible for 30% of algerian gdp. Selling gas to europe is what they depend on. some more money comes from trourism. also mostly from europe. Many countries dont have natural ressources. there the people need to work hard to earn their money.
there is nothing but algeria themself that stops algeria from building better cars than mercedes or bmw. or better smarthphones than iphone.
there is no soldiers forcing people from nairobi to mumbai going to mcdonalds. its the people themself who choose western products because they like them.
Many Asian countries focused on themself instead of blaming someone else and doing well with it. If African countries dont want take europe countries as role model they can look at them.
