  1. Afghanistan along with various Pacific Islands and southeast Asian countries are not doing so hot. Worse than even various African countries. Some black majority countries have nearly or even exceed the life expectancy of the US and other nations that are not majority black. Also, why is this the very factor you point out? Why not geography or colonial history(Japan was never colonized)?

  2. Southeast Asia is a big area. Botswana is doing quite well being better than India. Ghana managed to successfully launch space craft. Some islands that are majority blacks have life expectancies equal to the US or even possibly greater than it now. One of the key developers of the internet was a Nigerian. Also, colonialism was generally not longer in Asia. Asian countries only really took that much colonialism over the past 150 years and even during then, it was not as expansive as the colonialism in African where slavery was far more rampant. The longer colonized India compared to other Asian countries only does marginally better than most African countries and various African countries in the sub-Sahara do better than India does. Long term colonized Indonesia is also very poor with it not doing much better than most African countries with Gabon and South Africa out competing it. For Afghanistan, they have one of the largest lithium reserves in the entire world. Yemen was part of a formidable empire once as a key trading port and is at one of the key shipping lanes of the world. Island nations can have loads of resources like Nauru has with phosphates. India you know full well is rich in resources. Indonesia is possibly one of the most resource rich countries in the entire world. Also, why is the island status ok to be poor in those cases, but places like the Bahamas and Barbados don't count as they are much wealthier? Why is the Philippines so much more poor than them despite both having been colonies for a very long time? Another thing, there are no excuses being made and your mindset on people making excuses is wrong to be made. What you really should look for is false justification and here, these are not false justifications. I should also ask why you made this about black people and nothing else? Maybe whatever caused the countries to be more poor correlates with black people, but isn't the cause of such. But instead of that, you go straight to black people.  @sneckotheveggieavenger9380

  3. Lower life expectancies than the east Asians and places in the Mediterranean. Does it reason that they should be forced to learn the ways of the regional Japonic and Meditteranean people’s?
