With all the horrors and tragedies in the US it's almost like it was built on an ancient Indian burial ground.
"Nowhere else in the world had to suffer an entire separate continent spending nearly 400 years persistently waging war against it (either by political interference or direct military action) to intentionally destabilize it and subdue it. Africa just fell under pressure."
Are you implying the the millenia of coastal raids, military occupations, the Tartar and Ottoman Yokes were not imfluential in the development of Europe? And while Europe was facing these pressures they responded by expanding the economic base to technologically and economically outpace their threats.
Also, I find your lack of discussion on the imposition of Islam and the Arabic demand for slaves over the nothern and western parts of Africa disappointing.
