The British displaced Kenyans from our Highlands and designated these as White Highlands, where the Europeans could own up to 20,000 Hectares of land while Africans were pushed into native reserves. Those who dissented were put in concentration camps, like my grandparents. They also retained control of the Kenyan economy even after independence. There is a famous book called "Not Yet Uhuru" translated to "Not Yet Independent" written a few years after independence. Even the post-independence leaders were handpicked, so that they could be poster-children, and their corruption and dictatorship were overlooked by mother Britain. Africa was literally designed to fail.
As an African I really find it hard to hear that Europeans in 1884 were thinking about Africa as a nation. No body built a colony for eventual independence, it was at best a land grab. Saying Africa was built to fail shouldn't be part of 1884 but leaders over time who have failed to build a nation state or allow factions go their separate ways
africa is not the responsibility of europeans if africans want a good life free from the influence of europe, they have to be like everyone else and work hard for what they want
Out of guilt because of the last catastrophe😂😂😂but it is ridiculous to keep blaming germany, not oncecdid they lose a fair fight, the cowards are laugging now
The Berlin Conference made it "okay" and justifiable for these European nations to colonize all of Africa, so inevitably everyone wanted a fair share, Signed by United Kingdom, France, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Spain, the United States of America, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Sweden-Norway, and Turkey (Ottoman Empire). The arbitrary drawing of borders during the Berlin Conference remains a source of political instability in Africa.
I wouldn't think the arbitrary drawing of borders would be the focus. That probably goes to the INVADING, and the STEALING. Really the borders would be way, way down...
The author forgets to mention that the reason why the large diversity of linguistic groups in present day Nigeria isn’t only about intent to destabilize its foundations, it’s a tactic that the British deployed. People forget that slavery in Nigeria, mainly the SW part, was the main landmass of the Slave Coast, that majorly contributed to the large diversity of linguistic differences and “tribes” Slave Coast bordered Delta in the easternmost of the Coast to Volta river in westernmost point (present day Ghana) with mostly France & Portugal having holdings in the middle
Best reparations would be for the EU to alleviate the sufferings that cause so many to leave their homes. Undeniably a historical wrong, looked at through our eyes today.140 years ago is a different matter. It is the nature of man - man's inhumanity to man. We must learn from the past and put a stop to these wars
This is something that European leaders have to acknowledge and make peace with because most African people and governments distrust the European Union meddling in their business even if those European countries have good intentions to create great relationships with African countries that's why they're turning to China 🇨🇳.
@@GTA5Player1 Cooperate with those who are still willing. Otherwise, just wait and see really. Keep a light on and an open hand outstretched. China and much less Russia aren't going into this with the best of intentions either and they're already causing their own conflicts and grudges. More interest in the region is good though. It gives countries options and creates competition among investors. That's what growing independence looks like.
“Understand” is a weird word to use here. It almost suggests that Germany is an innocent victim just trying to understand why Africa is mad. You’d think the direct perpetrator of a crime would clearly understand what they have done. But nope, the denial is deep.
They didn’t have the colonists still hanging on to old assets. Most were of the SE Asian and central Asian countries either got full independence or some sort of government oversight by the west. Africa has only just started (by comparison of time) to boot out the western countries and their business assets. Plus Africa actually has massive natural resources that are used by first world countries. Or the west. 😮💨 😂
They’re already on their way. They just have to stop all this waring amongst themselves. I would love to see a fully united Africa in my day but there’s a lot of trauma they have to deal with
The Berlin Conference established the legal claim by Europeans that all of Africa could be occupied by whomever could take it. It also established a process for Europeans to cooperate rather than fight with each other. This cooperation played a huge role in the division and conquest of Africa.
without the berlin conference, africa would have been the cause of wars between european powers competing over colonies in africa the berlin conference really had less to do with africa and more about maintaining peace in europe
How about the other influences in Africa? Is the British and Frensh influence not more prominent, and should it not be considered? Why focus on the German influence?
Germany is where the conference was held. They pretty much say it in the interview. But all of the European and western countries that had stakes in Africa have either lost that control or have willingly withdrawn from those territories. So I figured there was no reason to bring it up.
@@LewisWanjia oh boy, let me grab the world's smallest violin places all around the world were colonized by europe, but most of those places are doing much better than africa is
@@Gravitatis While we are at it, you can tell me where else post independence leaders were assasinated by their colonial powers. I can name 7 for you in Africa, which was meant as a warning to others. Or better yet, you can tell me where else post independence leaders were overthrown by Western backed puppets, who turned out to be dictatorial, corrupt, and very friendly with the West, and even owned mansions in Europe. Or better yet, you can tell me where else the colonial powers maintained ownership of mineral resources even after pretending to give the natives their independence, I can name you a few in Africa. Or better yet, you can tell me where else the colonialists forced Africans to buy back their rightful land with loans from the same countries, leaving freshly independent nations with humongous debts. Kenya from example was loaned 50,000,000 British Pounds to buy back land from the British, haha, the irony. Or better yet, tell me which other continent was prevented from industrializing and processing its minerals on its own, and to only extract raw materials to be processed and manufactured in other continents. Do you need other examples?
Isn't it strange that the African countries themselves that had and still have these straight borders 50+ years later after independence, still have not rectified the ethnic/tribal divisions and still have these straight dividing lines. So maybe it is in the interest of these African countries to have straight borders. Nor those large African countries with many ethnic groups have allowed their 'allo-ethnic' parts of their territories to secede / become countries of their own right; especially not peacefully. So again it is the African countries that have been seeing a benefit in keeping these. I don't buy into the presenter's argument about these.
The issue is the ensuing civil wars that would emerge and the migrations from the wars that would hit not just North Africa but Europe would be catastrophic. Africa's population has grown since the colonial era. And trying to redefine borders is not easy, look at the Middle East for that. People have made homes in their current locations with all that entails.
We understand that the borders were tactfully designed to be easier to cause civil wars whenever the west wanted to. They made sure to join previous mortal enemies into one country and divide same groups into different countries with different colonizers.
@ the point is that there have been several decades during which such countries have been independent and yet their own and often celebrated leaders did not rectify what you claim to be this grave misjustice.
For African leaders this conversation is not fair. Will let people understand that the borders were drawn with no reason and will increase the secessionism.
Don't forget German colonial criminals massacred millions of Namibians without any apology or compensation yet they're forcing Africa to support them to defend American useless democracy in Ukraine Absolutely nonsense😡
Yeah this is an important issue, so is the war in Ukraine. Defending democracy is just as important as remembering what happened in Africa during colonialism.
"No Africa leader was there", wait a minute 😂is this guy serious? Does Murderers and thieves call you to attend to hear what they are going to do to you? 😅this is news reporting on another dumb level.

Could you please tell me how "long" germany's history in Africa was?🤔 I was under the impression that it only started after Bismarck and ended with WW1. That would make it last shorter than a high-quality car.
Well of course. Africans didn't invent the gun or gun powder so there's that. But it's doing alright. You gotta remember the population of Africa was still rather small in it's interior
God, who is the maker of everything, is merciful. Galatians 3:28 says,'We are all one in Christ Jesus'. 1884, it wasn't before Jesus Christ. Therefore, they were supposed to have heard the Good News Matthew 20:28 says Jedus came to serve not to be served'. They have heard about it, too. We can consider that it is the past. That man can make mistakes. But when nowadays, in the framework of cooperation between the nations of Africa, the Caribbean, and the Pacific and the European Union (ACP/EU). A framework where the continent of Africa, the Caribbean, the Pacific, together have a chief negotiator and the European Union has a chief negotiator, when the chief negotiator for countries of Africa, Caribbean and the Pacific, is a representative of a 60-year-old dynastic tyranny in West Africa, it is simply a tragedy. Haiti is a nation of the Caribbean. What lesson of pity, self-restraint, humility, or fear of God do a decades old dynastic tyranny inculcate to Haiti?
Halo @dw , where do you get to make a statement that says "and none of the African leaders were invited". Where do you think a coloniser will invite a colonised to hear how they will be controlled.
i mean in the 1880s i really doubt any of the african "nations" were even capable of engaging in diplomacy with any of the european powers did the african "nations" even have diplomats capable of travelling to europe?
Let`s not forget about the huge german legacy that was left behind back in latin America on early 1820`s.. yeah fellas, 19th century and still Germany don`t want to take part of it and don`t help them how they deserve, only if there will be reasons to explore the Germans Latins then yeah, of course they will be interest to "help" them
Rememberance around Europe and colonialism is too one-sided. I am happy to teach my kids about history and crimes during colonial rule. But then I wil also teach them things like the Haber-Bosch process, fertilizers and machinery, which have allowed africa's and the world's population to explode. If you teach history one-sided, people in africa and similar will somehow get the impression that we owe them something.
Sounds like a skill issue to me. The Europeans wouldn't have colonized Africa if the Europeans weren't already ahead. Sub-Saharan Africa didn't even have the wheel before it got colonized.
Does the skill issue apply in the same way when one European country invades another European country similar to what’s going on there at this very moment?
it sounds like germany is always at the centre of all historic wrongs

They tried to catch up to other empires by going further, reacting harder to pushbacks and generally cranking the empire game to 11. It backfired quite spectacularly, in particular when it was done so amateurishly after the Bismarck era. I hope new geopolitical powers won't repeat those mistakes.

Yes exactly! The Russians are innocent angels protecting freedom, equality and equal rights as we all know.
who cares about Africa? lmao
China for sure.
Who cares about you
China and Russia care about Africa. You will soon care about Africa as a person, watch and see.
Europe who colonized for Centuries.
where do you think the minerals EV batteries will be mined?
Well, back then they were eating each other.
Sounds like a skill issue to me. The Europeans wouldn't have colonized Africa if the Europeans weren't already ahead. Sub-Saharan Africa didn't even have the wheel before it got colonized.
Does the skill issue apply in the same way when one European country invades another European country similar to what’s going on there at this very moment?
