African Decolonisation Explained

This is bullshit....omg

J,ai oublie qu,il y,a des Moments dans Mon pays ou j,ai vecu toute Seule 🫤🫤🫤 quant on a La rage de detruire une femme

Thanks, a very clear overlook abouit the conalisation and deconalisation. It also let shows how unprepared these new country were to built a democatic system to manage the county. It is a complex matter but after the first presidents went, others came with less heart for the country and make the road free for corruption and as nowadayspointed out new dictatorships.

Between History, Geography, Social Studies, hell even Humanities; I feel like these were lessons that could have been weaved in to the courses we were force-fed somehow 🤔..

So, if Africans did not die in large numbers from diseases like chickenpox as they did in the Americas, how does it relate to colonialism? Please elaborate.

The Europeans need to go now!
Im in Africa now and colonialism is still very apparent.
They have stranglehold on everything.
Tourists from European still believe they own Africa.
Their behaviour and the treatment of locals is disgraceful.
The worst part, the Europeans dont even realise they are doing it.
Something has to change....the rape of Africa has gone on too long.
All European systems in Africa need to be torn up and a Centralised African government needs to take control.
Africa as one nation would take on the world.
The world would be knocking on Africas door for help.
Africa needs to unite......

Did the African countries become developed countries and first world countries after getting independence?

The borders are still the colonial borders which cut across ethnic groups and join unfriendly ethnicities together. There needs a complete redrawing of the map in Africa.

It happened because of communist pressure. There, i saved your 40 minutes

Unfortunately african nations are still under colonial rule. White masters has been replaced by local governments only too pleased to act in the interests of international corporations or their former colonial masters. Most african nations are ruled by dictators installed and supported by foreign nations. Mostly their former colonial masters but also by international companies interrested in ressources to be exploited. The worst example are Congo-Zaire. An immensely rich country but the wealth are exploited by shifting dictators and foreign interrests.

Freedom? You mean civil war, mass fraud, and deterioration?

Neo-colonial I know

I would keep it to myself not getting condemned

I remember slavery but I don’t cry about it

Only reason I care about Africa is I’m black

Just want education infustracture

Don’t care

I know why Africa’s poor

Not African I’m just black care more about Europe than Africa

What about the Canaries? Also Ceuta and Melilla?

It's still controlled don't lie.

That’s bullcrap the Europeans had fire arms something the Africans didn’t have

Western Sahara is not occupied, it's part of Morocco, like it was before the french spanish occupation,

before occupation Morocco included 1/3 of algeria, mauritania and western sahara

Looks a lot like Wisconsin to mev

YHVH I bed of you please 🙏 bring RAIN...RAIN...RAIN ❤

The decolonization of the former Portuguese colonies was simply a huge mess. Millions died due to civil wars in Angola and Mozambique. Firing squads in Guinea Bissau, concentration camps in Mozambique, políticas prisoners in ALL newly independent countries and worst of all, no elections or referendums were held in NONE of those territories. Talk about human rights! You people make me sick. No wondet Africa is such a huge f@€# up!

I love the fact the comments are filled with people from all over the world. This free share of knowledge across the globe will be our only hope of overcoming the problems we face today

First part about why Europeans became able to colonise Africa lacks mentioning malaria.

I descend both from Akans from the Gold Coast and Dutch, Belgian, French, English, and German settlers

The atrocities committed by that bastard Leopold II should be an eternal shame for the Belgian people until the end of time.

Ethiopia was only uncolonized country in Africa ..

What about the history of Eritrea 🇪🇷 being independent from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 ( black colonization) by bloody war of armed struggle for independence for 30 years since 1961( 1 year ahead of the destruction of the federal government in Eritrea , by Ethiopia) to independence date 1991.

Turn it all back into huts 🤷🏿

Scar in the face of humankind.

First of all Africa existed long time before this moment , by the time of Kanga Moussa the richest man of all time until now , in fact the way européens took advantage of africa it's by division of kingdoms and different tribes ,selling weapons and look at africans killing each other for many centuries . The result of colonisation a smal part of african population had been alienated by the européen culture but not all of them fortunatly . It took years for blakcs africans to understand that the whites folks never learn somthing from the african culture even not the languages and well leaving in the continent like if they roll was to civilised blakcs for been what they are inferieurs of them .Until today people still beleive both side of thoses prejidices , but now the population of africa is twice more numerous than européen , despite africans still very complexed , they started to realise they can make it without européens countries.

I think the WW1 really helped as well. Most resistance before that was just disorganized raids from pockets of resistance hiding out in the wilderness for most countries. They never stopped fighting, but it was not effective. After their overlords sent them to fight in WW1, they came back better informed on tactics and strategy, organized more in secret societies and became involved in politics from the inside, but still with the same goal in mind. WW2 just gave the opportunity.

You know what I find hilarious? Oil protesters are polled to be the same people who protest in the name of Black Lives Matter (BLM.) However, if big oil was to stop, there would be mass famine across Africa would result in hundreds of millions of death. I have no sympathy for colonized countries. Singapore has three times the economy of their colonizer. But, when it comes to Nigeria, I can see has a much better hope than most of the other emerging countries within Africa, given their resources.

As an African from the drc (Congo dr) I feel like we should’ve listened to father Nkrumah and became a country now we are suffering we have common issues that require common goals we own our continent Africans for Africans

And I’m using my basic sense and I’m 10

Wake up people of Africa wake up wake up my fellow brothers in poverty because we may have been beaten in the awakening of the game but we haven’t been beaten in the endgame

We need a united nation with one language with one government

We need to stand up to neo colonaisim

And that is the African dream ❤

Excellent video 👏👏 Keep up the good work my friend.

Let us learn together. Remember those who fought for their land were called terrorists. Calling them terrorists means they are not entitled to the protections of the International Humanitarian Law or Law of War. Convenient isn't it.

The idea of uninhabited land was justification to cease the land. The Papal Bull and the Doctrine of Discovery legalised ceasing land that was not occupied. As a result what ever land they ceased could be describe as "terra nulius" meaning uninhabited.

thank you for making this video and bringing light to this topic. it's sad that this isn't taught in european schools and the public has so little knowledge about all of the suffering that the africans went through.

Whites are Not above Blacks; but in hindsight it is apparent that Africans were not fully prepared to rule themselves.....they did need whites to continue telling them what to do for a time.

And now South Africa is a Failed State.....a literal shit hole.

Now many are falling into a debt trap with the Chinese Communist Party.

And many are far worse off after decolonization......and they blame it on colonization. I place the blame on Africans themselves ....being filled with the lust for power and wealth themselves and treating their people as poorly, if not worse, than the colonizers ever did.

This map is not accurate at all…you forgot to add the Persian Empire and it’s Arab defectors in NA. You put indigenous. The oldest skeletons tell us they weren’t indigenous.

Hi!
Great video!
However, Nigeria actually gained independence on the 1st of October, 1960, not
August 3rd. That's Niger's independence day.
