Seriously, they have everything, uranium for power plants, heavy forests for housing, etc.

Drc has everything they need to become a developed (or a developing) country, but they choose to be an underdeveloped country

Yeah, it’s really sad, they don’t even need fossil fuels to have good electricity, they have good amounts of uranium. Not to mention forests for housing, a bunch of ores for selling to other countries, making more money, and being a first world African country, but they had to have shit leaders.

Only if they didn't have crappy leaders.

They're perennially victimized by the American Empire, and the French - who maintain a destabilizing military force in the East of the country, supplied and armed by their Rwandan Puppet Regime.

It's not a coincidence that anytime an African leader stops taking the corrupt payoffs from the economic hitmen, and tries to orchestrate development along a sovereign path...that the Jackals are called-in, to kill that leader, or a western-backed 'opposition group' rises, to begin a political bloodsport.

So that's why Africa is so underdeveloped.

Thanks.
