Second, while European intrusion and confusion in Africa did lead to turmoil, as many of my classmates have said, we cannot blame the past for our present actions. Current African warlords and warring people groups cannot blame Europe for their state of turmoil. Let us remember that there was already civil war within African states before Europeans barged in.
Lastly I would just like to state that I am not saying the European partitioning of Africa did not lead to civil unrest, I am simply saying that it is not the sole contributor.
Thus, in my opinion all European partitioning action in Africa was wrong, just as the civil wars that followed is wrong, but neither can blame the other completely for the results of their actions.
