Just don't expect Africa to develop heavy industry, or get anywhere near wealthy enough to allow luxuries like in the West.
Not sure about that, a lot af contries down there have a fair amout of resources. The Problem right now it that there are only western industries that are using them, there is no african industrie. So the western are sucking the wealth out of africa. They are making money with african resources but the money goes to the west, and africa has nothing.
the old colonization is gone, but it is replaced with an industrial colonisation.
