All of Africa's nations have a lower standard of living than any European or North American state. Why is that? Blaming colonialism isn't going to help answer, because colonialism actually helped some countries (read; South Africa.)
If colonialism is so bad and caused so much poverty, explain why LIBERIA, untouched by European powers, is at the same level? And why are the North African countries more advanced? |

| I wouldn't say north africa is more developed but yeah, if it were then it would be because they don't share the same culture as the South,West and East Africans. I hate the West African cultures, all they do is just blame their leaders for their mistakes then turn a blind eye on their mistakes. |

Rhodesia was still recognized as a British colony. They received support from the British. |

The modern nations in Africa existed only for decades while the modern nations Europe and North America existed for hundreds of years
"Blaming colonialism isn't going to help answer, because colonialism actually helped some countries (read; South Africa.)"
Colonialism put different ethnic groups into the same country. And yeah the Europeand built roads and infrastructure, not to help the Africans, but to export resources out of Africa.
"If colonialism is so bad and caused so much poverty, explain why LIBERIA, untouched by European powers, is at the same level?"
Liberia was a territory of the United States
"And why are the North African countries more advanced"
Why does Nigeria have a higher GDP than the countries in North Africa? |

"then why do mestizos who live in the same impoverished conditions get higher IQs than subsaharans who generally live better and get millions upon millions of foreign aid?"
Mestizos are healthier and have more education generally. |

"Liberia was a territory of the United States"
The United States never had colonies in Africa, as they knew building an empire would be hypocritical. Liberia was established by freed slaves as a way to bring ex-slaves back to Africa. It did not benefit the U.S in any way as the Federal Government had nothing to do with its creation. |
