Truly you're both crazy and ignorant all those Japanese companies you mentioned are mostly electronic manufacturers what about Aerospace engineering including Microelectronics,etc if you don't know what to type you shouldn't expose your lineage's mental retardation online

razzydoo:
Not true. This is propaganda. What is up there is factual.

JuanDeDios:
Interesting perspective.

Quick question: Why do you think Oyinbos did not settle in large numbers to carry our mechanised farming in Nigeria, Ghana, Ethiopia, or Cameroon - the way they did in South Africa, Zimbabwe, or Uganda?

hkidola00:
west africa doesnt have favourable weather for the white man, coupled with govt policies...but we still have I.I.T.A doing well here in nigeria

West Africa is not necessarily hotter than other parts of the continent. The highest temperature you'd find in Zimbabwe in 33 degrees C, same as Abeokuta. But, yeah, the parts bordering the Sahara can get very hot. Which is something I alluded to.

But it's not only West Africa that was skipped. I mentioned Ethiopia. They didn't settle there in large numbers to farm because it'd be a waste of resources to do so in unfertile land.

That is true for most of Africa. You only have a few pockets of places that are fertile. For example, most of Southern Africa. Elsewhere, there are fertile places, but they tend to be fewer and more isolated - for example, the Benue Basin in the middle belt of Nigeria, Ibarapa in SW Nigeria, etc.

I'm not saying most of the continent is not fertile, mind you. I said "the least fertile", meaning not as fertile as most other places.

Human Resources (Baby factory)

MrGerald:
How about your mighty country, they counted important ones and left you behind now you're looking to who you'll pour out your frustrations, you ape like humans s eh

MrDoGood:
They won't list any Africa country because they don't want you to have an idea what you're worth

Yankee101:
Don’t let the divided maps confuse you. Africa is the most resource rich continent in the world but is divided into smaller nations along colonial lines

Slimm01:
I thought they said Africa have the most natural resources....which Americans, Europeans and Asians comes to steal.

themanderon:
Africa is not rich and yet the west have refused to leave the continent alone for centuries now. Don't let anyone deceive you.

tctrills:
Sir what are you taking, it's clearly affecting you.
Here are the 10 biggest GDPs
United States (U.S) $30.340 trillion
2 China $19.530 trillion
3 Germany $4.920 trillion
4 Japan $4.390 trillion
5 India $4.270 trillion
6 United Kingdom (U.K.) $3.730 trillion
7 France $3.280 trillion
8 Italy $2.460 trillion
9 Canada $2.330 trillion
10 Brazil $2.310 trillion

Please stop getting your news from beer parlours. Russia is number 11 on the list.

tctrills:
Lol, the facts are against you.
Let me give you a small example.
Russia has by far the biggest land area in the world and a super fertile land but at its best year, Russia is only the 11th biggest exporter of food.
Below is a list of some of the biggest companies in Japan. All are household names. You can compare them to the best of Russia.
Toyota Motor Corporation
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group
Sony Group Corporation
Hitachi, Ltd.
SoftBank Group Corp.
Mitsubishi Corporation
Nintendo Co., Ltd.
Honda Motor

I am sure your eyes have been opened to why the Russian economy is a joke when compared to a super power like Japan.

Now let's go down the list of leading exporters.
China: Approximately $3.42 trillion.​

United States: Approximately $1.86 trillion.​

Germany: Approximately $1.57 trillion.​

Japan: Approximately $766 billion.
Netherlands: Approximately $731.87 billion.​
South Korea: Approximately $645.05 billion.​
Italy: Approximately $629.09 billion.​
France: Approximately $598.51 billion.​
Hong Kong: Approximately $574.62 billion.
Mexico: Approximately $569.15 billion

Even a city state like Hong Kong is doing better than your Russia.

Russia is a perfect example of good for nothing.
Oga, your Russia is an upgraded Nigeria.

Hecrax:
A fool like you still thinks that Russia's economy is only tied to oil and gas forgetting they have their won independent Microelectronics production brand including being leaders in Aerospace engineering ,etc

blueAgent:
Clown.

See as they school you

All noise no facts unlike the dude, who gave you knock punches with verifiable facts.

blueAgent:
US oil Shale is not included.

They have reserve equivalent to all the conventional oil reserves in Saudi,Venezuela, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Canada e.t.c put together.

blueAgent:
Leave that clown.
California a state in US, has a larger economy than the over hyped Russia.

Hecrax:
A brain 🧠 DEAD clown like you doesn't know the difference between Nominal GDP and GDP based on Purchasing Power Parity

Hecrax:
r Canada has bigger shale oil reserves than Amelica

Hecrax:
In Africa but Russia USA and China have more resources than them

blueAgent:
Usual propaganda

themanderon:
What is the usual propaganda? The west sees Africa as the easiest way to secure cheap resources that would sustain their future because of their foolish leaders. The west cannot do what they do here to other continents. They find it easy to pick on Africa so what's the usual propaganda here?

sunboy:
Nope. Congo singlehanded has the world largest cobalt reserves. The only close country is Australia in a very distance second. Congo has 70% of world cobalt. China and Russia not even in top 5.
