In Asia we retain national, and ethnic identities...

Vietnam:
>Language: Vietnamese
>Ethnic group: Vietnamese

Nigeria:
>Language: English
>Ethnic group: Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa

Most of the countries are strongly multi-ethnic with a whole slew of tribal languages. The colonial languages, however, are seen as "neutral" and are also understood by the majority of the people in the country.

Vietnam has some minority groups within it but is, by and large, a nation of Vietnamese. Nigeria, meanwhile, has got a something like 3-4 large ethno-racial groups (and numerous smaller ones) so they need a language to bridge the gap.

China or India has many ethnic groups, It's simply not true that Asia is ethnically more homogenous than Africa. No continent actualy.
>>
>>74613886
But why do countries that aren't multi-ethnic still have colonial language as official language? See Madagascar, Swaziland, Botswana.

The question is why is Africa is so cucked unlike Asia?

Trade with neighbors/Europe

South African here, don't try to understand it, you'll just get dumber

Basically what it boils down to is these ethnic groups were once tribes, thanks to the cuck ass Brits and French they got shuffled around, forced to live in different places and balkanized, now they just run around murdering each other

There's thousands of ethnic groups, but they're all pretty much the same except for customs/culture and language, it's like how /pol/ will argue that Italians aren't white, it's completely fucking retarded

Because in Africa the national identity wasn't very strong. Egypt and Ethiopia are the only two african countries that made that and they still exist today. But every other other political structure were built in the last century and a lot of the modern borders aren't recognized by their own people.

Africa then:
>Weak demography
>Weak political structures
>Strong european empires cucked them

Asia then:
>Extremly big demography
>Strong political structures
>Europe can only cuck the weak ones
>>
africa is a good demonstration what would happen of you introduced modern technology and weaponry to a bunch of tribalist cavemen. the continent lacked natural development and reforms that europe and civilized parts of asia had the luxury to have due time.
