What is more important in Africa, tribes or nations? Should Africa's map be redrawn?
Muskaan Narula
Tribes
Nations
COLONIAL PAST
- Africa's ethnic groups
Africa has 2000 ethnic groups and 1000 different languages. When the Europeans arrived they set up boundaries. Some of these boundaries split the tribes, while others were forced to join their traditional enemies.
Should Africa's map be redrawn?
Africa's political map today.
MY OPINION
I think that in the case shown above tribes are more important than nations because if the tribes aren't other willing to communicate with each other they're not going to have a good economy.Yes, I think that the map should be redrawn. It should be redrawn according to the Africans needs not the European's needs.
Does the colonial past effect
the present?
My opinion is yes.Take this as an example:The Europeans arrived in Africa when it was was doing okay. Then the Europeans took over and changed the ways some things worked. Some of these changes-like the one written above-caused different changes accordingly.
