  • The Central African Republic is one of the poorest countries in the world, but it is also rich in natural resources. One of the official mining sectors has collapsed amid the country’s ongoing conflict, and now both sides are benefitting from the illicit trade of gold and diamonds. Clashes over control of the many mines have also created religious tension in places where there previously had been none.
    VICE News traveled to mines located in the heart of the Central African Republic to see how the battle over natural resources is playing out in one of the world’s most violent conflicts.

      Russell Johnson Turkey is a nation that is settled by Turkic Turks from the Central Asian Steppes Turks also mixed with the people of the region.
      First learn the difference between Mongols and Turkic culture then talk about mongoloids. The true Anatolian's died off/disappeared long before we came to the region.

    • @theonetheonlydeganthevegan4392
      @theonetheonlydeganthevegan4392 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Russell Johnson I can trace my family lineage to Central Asia, Turks started flooding Anatolia after the battle of Manizkert, it may not have been millions of Turks but its definitely not 8,000. Do not assume I am brainwashed I live in the United States and have never studied or went to school in Turkey. No one in Turkey denies that we are not mixed, in fact we have a world for it ''Melez'' meaning ''Hybrid'' a lot of Turks claim they are ''Melez'' including me even though my lineage goes all the way back to Central Asia. We may not be pure Turkic but we are Turkic in the end even if it means our Genes only determine we are 0.01% Turkic we still have Turkic heritage. What do you expect us to do now?
      Look at our Genes and then if it comes up as Greek, move to Greece learn Greek and live as Greeks? We have lived this way for over 600 years, being Turkish is a new cultural Identity if you ask me. We are mixed us fuck, but who gives a fuck? Oh right non-Turks. Fuck you,Fuck Atatürk, Fuck Erdoğan. Take that Kebab and shove it up you ass.

    • @theonetheonlydeganthevegan4392
      @theonetheonlydeganthevegan4392 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Russell Johnson You do know that Atatürk wanted a Turkish nation and did not care who was a part of it in fact he made anyone in the borders of the newly created Turkish Republic a Turkish citizen, That is including Armenians,Greeks ,Kurds etc. That is the whole reason why our genes are so mixed and why everyone doesn't care about their Genes in Turkey. Erdoğan on the other hand is not like that he prefers a Arabs over Turks, Islam over Secularism etc. I respect Atatürk, but that doesn't mean I can't say Fuck him or not, he was a smart man and all but not a Angel. Fuck Erdoğan I hate him to death. Hey man I'm sorry how about you come to Turkey so I can buy you a nice lamb Kebab with no grease so I can my self shove it up your ass :)

      Many countries in Africa are rich in mineral deposits but OFTEN exploited by First World nations such as US and Europe and Second World countries like China. The result is a massive inequality, which the country being exploited got nothing in return by the foreigners taking all the resources for themselves. There's not a lot of development of the exploited as their entire economics is so fcked up by foreigners. Add to situation arose by warmongers who did nothing but bring more chaos and instability. Often this tribal divisions are funded by foreigners.

    There’s an African proverb that says, “if you want to walk fast, walk alone, if you want to far, walk together”. Ironic how we do not see this sense of brotherhood nowadays. The easiest thing to do is blame religion, but this is further from the truth in my opinion. We have a choice, a choice to think for ourselves, a choice to carry ourselves accordingly and a choice to always do the right thing; justice! Unfortunately when it comes these very poor countries, the poverty level is so high that they are not only materialistic poor, but also psychologically, which is three times worse. This situation seems to be more about tribes fighting for territory (ego) and gaining the upper hand on mining grounds (more ego) than religion.

And the average ones like us we allow it to happen because all we do is talk about it then we turn our computer off and pay more for a coffee than these poor people get paid for gold

      Darth Zoddo ***** I would dare to say that over the course of history, hundreds of millions of people have been killed because of their religion or the religion of their enemies. This applies to most religions. The teachings that are supposed to be tools for moral guidance are responsible for millions upon millions of deaths.

      David Melo Your argument is fallacy. You want to lump all religions together because you are either too ignorant or too stubborn to admit the modern problem of the 21st century isn't religion, it's insane Islamic fanatics. You just like to say religion because you are most likely an atheist douche who thinks quoting history prior to planes, trains, and automobiles has a foot hold in reality here. Of all the religion in the world non has done more damage in the last 50 years.

      TheBlackB0X Did you not just watch this video of Christians killing Muslims? There are many problems in our modern age and in my OPINION, religion is one of them. Now more than ever, mankind needs reasons to come together to thrive as a species. We are all basically the same and the world wont realize that if we continue to alienate one another. Just you see in the past, in the present and for the foreseeable future, people will continue to kill each other over supernatural beliefs. If you don't think that is a problem, then we will just have to agree to disagree. Please don't reply if you can't do it respectfully. If my beliefs make me an "ignorant douche" then I hope your beliefs have some type of moral code where you can be respectful towards other human beings.
