Why are predominantly Black/African counties are among the poorest in the world?

This is because Africa as a continent sucks. Its geography, size and location sucks.

If you understand just how much Baby Yoda Star Wars Loves Buffalo Bills Hawaiian Shirt NFL Hawaiian Shirt sucks, you’ll realise that black people are a lot more successful and resilient as a society than are given credit for.

Let’s start with the picture of Africa we’re used to seeing:

Looking from the top down, we immediately see a huge desert, the largest in the world, the Sahara desert. Much of that land is wasteland.

Then in central Africa things seem to look promising, right? Lots of green, seems as habitable as any Buffalo Bills Hawaiian Shirt Palm Leaves Pattern Summer Beach Gift NFL Hawaiian Shirt land. But not so fast. Nearly all of that green is present in tropical climate. High humidity, lots of diversity, and lots of freakin insects!

Ever heard of malaria? I guess everyone has. Malaria can wreak havoc on human societies. What is lesser known however is how mosquitos and flies carry diseases that wreak havoc on animals, causing animal weakness and lethargy. Animals in central Africa are weaker than other parts of the world, and less useful. While Europeans and Asians could make good use of cattle, horses and donkeys to do the heavy lifting and pulling on their farms, Africans couldn’t achieve this on an equal scale. African farms are historically less productive than other parts of the world. With lack of animal muscle, Buffalo Bills Hawaiian Shirt New York Yankees Summer Beach Gift NFL Hawaiian Shirt always had to work harder to get the land to be productive. When consumed with manual labor, there is less time to reflect and put innovative ideas to the test.

Then there’s the issue of rivers in Africa. Africa has many rivers, but very few that are useful for human logistics.

There are just two good examples on the entire continent of rivers that are large enough, and gentle enough for ferrying huge cargo. The Nile and the Bills Hawaiian Shirt river. There are a few other large rivers, but not broad and gentle enough for meaningful logistical use. https://tan-alligator-kl9vh2.mystrikingly.com/blog/why-are-predominantly-black-african-counties-are-among-the-poorest-in-the-world
