Europe in the 15th century was like Aba, Surulere and ajegunle combined.
Africa and Asia had far better life than Europeans.

So what happened?

Colonization happened.
What is colonization, it is when you invade a peaceful country and enslave it's people to do your bidding.
Europe colonizers killed so many bright and intellectual people and stole Soo much from Africa, gold, natural resources,even workforce
The reason Europe is rich and functioning well today is because of all they stole from Africa
Europe in 1500bc was babaric,suffering black death disease which wiped off 70% of Europe due their very poor sanitation
Google England in 1500bc. Very dirty and filled with theifs called pirates.
All these changed when these pirates, colonial Masters and explorers discovered Africa's natural abundance of resources. So they enslave,torture, steal from Africa
Imagine if in 1500BC Africans invaded Europe and stole everything they had.
Will Europe be as mighty and big as it is today??
Africa is still recovering from the devstation and negative side effect of colonization.
Africa was in harmony
Until the whites came and disorganized everything. Dividing and joining african territory lands and tribes that don't interact with each other.
They messed up everything and left after stealing calling it independence.

How can an European invade your country steal from you, all valuables and enslave your people. Only to give you independence. Independence means "okay guys, we entered this country and have sapped this country dry. So it's time to run away and leave them to find their way.
Stripe them of their local tradition and push foreign tradition down their necks. (Christianity)
Give them a type of a federal government system which does not work for Africa, because Africa is made up of different tribes.
Which is best handled by local cheifs.
This is how Africa thrived before European came and scatter everything.
There was no federal government when European arrived Africa.

My point is, if a theif comes into your house, take your strong children as slaves then keep hostage and enjoy all food and drink in the house. Taking over the house (it is called colonization)
The thief steal your tv,chair,fridge and sell all of it and make money.

Your wall was blue in color but the thief likes red color. So the Repaint your house to red (remove your old tradition and push in their foreign tradition)
Once he is done with you, he will release you (this is independence)
Now you are disorganized,confused and broke (post independence)
Because the theif is now rich fr selling your things, while you are still struggling to catch up.
NOBODY COLONIZED EUROPE
This is what colonization is all about
Forget the fancy definition of colonization you see In the dictionary.
Colonization is entering another man's land, conquer them and steal their resources.
This confused state after the white man has divided your country and joined different parts and mess up everything then run away in form of giving you independence which means we have finished chopping you so you can have your country back.

This Is the reason why Africa is filled with corrupt govt and underdevelopment.

So as an African you have every right to go to Europe.

The riches of Europe, what changed Europe from a smelling sickness infested continent to a world power is from the gold's,copper, and many other natural resources that was stolen from Africa in very large amounts.
Europe used this stolen wealth to trade with other countries
And continued looting from Africa via the colonial Masters made Europe rich everyday.
Because Europe will never be rich if not for those European colonial Masters that stole so muuch from Africa.
Africans OWN Europe

Please, who did Japan, Singapore, Russia, etc colonize?

Please, who did Japan, Singapore, Russia, etc colonize?

Asia was doing very great with trading business in the silk road.

Middle East was the heart of medical and mathematics.

Africa was the hub of natural resources and strong workers.

Europe had NOTHING, just a place filled with death,sickness, pirates, thieves, Viking warriors. Their thieves and pirates go around to discover new lands and they find Africa and steal as much as they can to build and transform the future of Europe.

Asian countries like Japan were busy with their innovation and
Only European countries like portugal,Spain, England,french were busy looting and stealing from Africa.

Many countries in Europe are not doing well financially due to China taking their jobs and production. Europe also exploited other parts of the world that are doing well today regardless. If every Nigerians go to Europe na suffer dey await. People in italy,poland, greece,cyprus, Romanian and other are moving to other countries to get jobs. colonization and domination of smaller or weaker countries is a normal human phenomenon. Stop crying like a child. African empires also conquered each other e.g oyo had dahomey under it for a while . Countries like india, malaysia,singapore, ghana were colonised too. They are moving on just fine. Europe had a powerful military and navy hence most countries did not stand a chance against them. Na normal thing

This history we have forgotten, we were far better before they came. We had the science and engineering.... Africa was the home of meta physics. Brainwashed us with their doctrine and left us for good. They knew we were programmed and forever be in that line.

How did an African believe men from the Middle-East are gods, but detest the Amadioha in his backyard. How did men descend so low to believe wearing suit and tie is civilisation...... Still happening till date. Being pushed to do what was never in our culture. By 2030, whole of Africa would have accepted gay and lesbianism. Abortion and those foreign ills will be a norm. We almost also walking naked like them..... Is there gains at all fronts, cos it re-establishes their confidence that we foolish.


With all Africa got, we can't even account for it. Still controlled by this lots. Nothing like independence,. We still not. From East, South, West and North Africa, they still own it. They can distabilize any African nation at will and why you will see African leaders still following orders. They own everything but tell you it's yours. From the oil, coal, manganese, diamonds and platinum, it still controlled by them till date

Point is, there are many countries that were colonized and colonized no one who are doing quite well. Not only that, when Britain left Nigeria, we were doing quite great despite no oil money as at then. So u can't blame colonization. Ethiopia was almost wiped out by famine, yet no one ever colonized them.

We try to give excuses for our failures as a continent and country, since 1960 till date what has your country achieved meaningfully since the British left? Was Nigeria not better off during the colonial era than today?


We rise by lifting others

What are you smoking??
Which European colonized America and Canada
Australia was not colonized and the colonial masters killed all local ethnic genocide on the people they meet there.
Therby taking over the land.
If the white men killed everyone in Nigeria and take over. You will think it is the whites that own Nigeria.
The original people of Australia was wiped out in genocide.
And European toke over the lands.
Those white people you see in Australia are not the real owners of Australia.

Ethopia was living in harmony with king Hallie salasie as ruler
Until Soviet Union Russia formed and armed a rebel group to overthrow the king of Ethopia.
They were not colonized but their way of life was but in disarryy following the bloody act of the Soviet Union Russia.

Now other countries that were colonized where not colonized to the extent Africa was colonized.
Countries that were colonized like India got their independence early in the 18th century.
But African countries got independence 1960.
You can't compare a country that got independence in 1912 or 1876
To a country that got independence in 1960. There is a far gap

Talk with facts. India git independence in 1947. Ghana, 1957. Nigeria was doing better than both after Britain left, BEFORE the unbelievable cash from oil. Focus on that for a moment: WITHOUT oil money, we were doing much better than now. If what u r saying is true, we would have steadily gotten richer after Britain left, even without oil!

True to an extent. They didnt kill all of them. Theres still aboriginals in australia. They killed alot tho. And europeans did colonize america. Only american indians were there before that.
And the white ppl u see in australia now..they were born there as were their parents and grandparents and their parents. The people who colonized australia and killed a majority of the indigenous ppl there they are all long dead. The people born there n live there now if they dont belong in australia where should they go? They wasnt born in england nor ireland nor scotland nor france. They are australian. The history there is sad but the people at fault died 200 years ago. Same as the african americans should they leave America n return to africa? Where would they go? How would they know where their african ancestors came from? Plus they were born in america its their home. Most the world for 100s n 100s of years people have migrated across the continent and it started that long ago who knows who belongs truly where? The world has a sad cruel and awful history but thats wat it is. It was wrong but u cant punish people today for something 100s of years ago done by way back ancestors they dont even know n probably wouldn't have approved of. History and the perpetrators are long dead. People born in a country long since those days belong there too. But u are correct. The europeans back in those days did steal and do alot of wrong. It was the way the world was i guess. People prayed on weaker people. The whole worlds history is full of it in most cultures somewhere. Be it country invading country, tribes invading other tribes territories etc.

The bolded is very true.
When they were about leaving,they signed an agreement with our leaders for them(the whites) to be controlling about 70% of these resources for years (the duration,I don't know).

This is one of the reasons the British are supporting our government on "one Nigeria" on a low.Because once Nigeria splits,the contract has ended!
