african leaders made the british fight for every inch of land they took
many Europeans viewed Africans as an inferior race
No leaders were present. The boundaries were decided centuries ago by the leaders of the European countries that conquered most of Africa.
If that tribal leader had battle prisoners that he wanted to get rid of then he could sell them to the Europeans for money
Because African leaders were so happy to exchange their prisoners-of-war for cheap English goods like crockery and linen.
Haha. I saw this in my homework. Well it is simple. The west is more rich because the countries in eastern Europe used to be communist, and the leaders of the eastern European countries still have communist.
After taking control of China, the goal of Japanese military leaders was to free Asia from the Europeans. What many didn't realize was that this was not done as a humanitarian effort, but as a hasty effort to build their own empire.
They believed that Africans were uncivilized and needed to be guided by Europeans- APEX
Belgium stripped local African leaders of all political influence.
African leaders hoped for independence after fighting the Germans.
If you are meaning why are African counties LEDC's (Less economically developed county) it could be as they are just not as well off as other countries. I do believe there are a few African countries that are MEDC's (More economically developed country) It also has to do with the leaders, trades, the weather. A lot of things contribute to it. How the leaders run the country, the trades importing and exporting of foods, materials, clothing, etc. Also the weather as there is little rain, the crops wont survive to their full potential.
In 1999, leaders of six Central African countries, including Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Gabon, agreed to establish a framework for regional cooperation and security. This agreement aimed to address common challenges such as conflict resolution, development, and economic integration. The leaders emphasized the importance of collaboration to promote peace and stability in the region, which had been affected by ongoing conflicts and instability.
Most of the countries in Africa now have complete control over their resources. Yes, some of the massive profits from those are unquestionably being stolen, but look in the bank accounts of African politicians and leaders for the money.
