africa.........?
A Zimbabwean man during this
time of European imperialism
said the following:
"When you [Europeans] came,
you had the Bible and we
[Africans] had the land.
Now, we have the Bible and you
have the land
what do you think he means and
describe what he implies about
the impact of missionaries on
Africa.
thanks a lot

Europeans used religion to control Africans and distance themselfes from their traditions which were the oldest in the world then colonized Africa. Now many Africans follow their religion and Europeans still to this day own the most best suitable lands in Africa |

How did Africa get to become While Europe has advanced
greatly within the last 500
years, why is the continent of
Africa continue to be poor and
undeveloped. I know the
Industrial Revolution began in
Europe, but look at North
America, technology certainly
spread throughout there. When
the Europeans began to first
colonize North America, they
brought the technology with
them. Africa too, has been
colonized be the Europeans,
but the conitinent of Africa
is far behind most other
countries in the world. Now
forget about the Europeans
spreading their technology.
Japan, having a history of
being one of the most
islotated countries, is far
more advanced than Africa. Why
is all this true? Will Africa
ever catch up to the rest of
the world?

I think africa is used as the worlds whipping boy. 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. $$$$$$ |

Depending on wind and wave conditions, it could take several weeks. No less than a week or two though. Figure 5 knots (7mph) average speed for those ships, if they had decent winds. |
