Because they have a lot of people, like Europe.

Because it is a large land mass with many natural land divisions such as mountains and rivers. Ambitious leaders are unable to unite people in different countries together. Africa is relatively poorer, and thus less stable. Several coup d'etats happen every year in Africa, further fragmenting regions and countries.
