How come no one has tried to invade africa after the imperial age in the 1800?
They must have a fuckton of resources left and who outside of africa would get mad at you for invading?
>>
uwot? Africa was getting imperial'd up until the 60s, then it got Cold War'd.

Nowadays, multinational companies simply bribe the local government/general/warlord and just strip-mine everything.

Same people who got made at Russia for invading Ukraine. And Russia didn't even have to actually invade the country to get shit on.
>>
Technically you could say the Chinese have been slowly invading the entire continent for the last decade. Albeit through trade deals and not the slaughter we've come to know and love with regard to African conflicts.

Also Africa is an entire continent, so there's that.

And still... China developped much more in the last 70 years than Africa did in the same period.

Soviet Union Flooded them with a full-auto assault gun, that was hard to break and easy to learn. Along with with cheap tubes that let you fire anti-infantry-air-tank projectiles.

Also the west has less manufacturing thus less need for there resources. Which is why china moved in.

>why has nobody invaded Africa?
Why would anybody invade Africa?

The place is enormous and has a population of ~2 Billion poor people, spread out over ~60 nations, hardly any of which are cohesive enough to mount a defense of their own borders, let alone the continent's.
I suppose you could mount an invasion as a training exercise, but honestly, if you just wanted Africa's resources, just go there and take them. If someone gets in your way, bribe them. If that doesn't work, bribe their enemies.

If a company devoted fifty years to restoring soil and improving irrigation to recreate southern Africa as the breadbasket it was, you would have the only real competitor to the US in food production in the world. That being said, food has never been cheaper so I don't know how much payoff that would give.

If i start my own militia and take over liberia or something how could i take over the entire continent without getting tried for war crimes?

I think with the recent action in the Gambia, West Africa's finally reached the point where they're not going to stand by and allow neighbouring countries to slide into chaos. Even the Ivory Coast election shitshow from a few years ago was widely condemned.

So, if you tried to take over Liberia, other West African nations would probably just invade and remove you.

because they are ungrateful knob-heads, they may not like how us whiteys did things, but wait till the slant eyes start rolling in under the pretense of "protecting state interests and property". At least us whites tried to civilize them and teach them not to act like fucking monkeys
