  1. To be honest this idea could have worked better if it first formed without south sudan and the Congo, both have terrible conditions and trying to fit them all together as quickly as possible might scare off the other players of the project. Bigger is not always better and things that sound great on paper in practice sometimes fall apart. It be great if they can get it to work but I have my doubts.

  6. I never quit get the argument of "Europeans drew the borders like this 200 years ago, therefor everything bad" for starters even naturally drawn borders bring conflicts like say the Balkans or in China and second, Europeans left close to a century ago, any border disputes would have been handeled by people if they wanted to or even wage wars to create stable borders and more nations between nations or even better why not just leave to go to the country you rather be part of? What's stopping you? I feel like people are just throwing stuff at a dart board to see what sticks to make any conclusion besides, "well they want/like it like this" it makes the africans seem like Children that can't do anything to help themselves and I think that's kind of racist or at least dishonest compared to different standards in other nations.

  9.  @jonathanvilario5402  could/may/should/will violence does not stop that easily not even when profits dry up, it takes a combination of violent suppression, laws, institutions, trade, economic development, education and cultural behaviour that's hard to change, it may take 20-50 years for such things to desolve completly.

  11. Probably but I think people believe one big country that fails forward brings more progress and development than multiple smaller nations falling forward in different speeds.
