Not exactly a historic change in the status quo. Though I believe that Belgium was the worst of offenders.
Thats some more made up rationalization you whites like to spread around. The warring tribes are a direct result of Europeans carving up Africa without regard to traditional borders as I have already pointed out to you. Again try that on someone that doesn't know better. The new colonization technique involves bad loans at extremely high rates to feed the banking cartels. This fiat money is used to buy influence and start more wars in these countries already in trouble due to European influence. Everywhere you look European culture. Your culture is the cause of problems in this world. You should be ashamed to sit there and attempt to rationalize it. I know how you truly feel about it. Dont be a unprincipled liar.
It seems to me that what you describe wasn't a change from the status quo.
