  • When the chinese first came to africa they gave the natives gifts, as a sign of respect, but when the european arrived, they enslaved them.

    Actually, the Africans enslaved each other and then sold their brother’s to the Europeans. Slavery was exploited and globalized by the Europeans, but it was part of African society already by that time.

    Speaking from my own experiences, China would have sent tens of thousands of Chinese to Africa and would have taken over the running of the continent. They would then create a false history in which Africa was always a part of China and would punish anybody who didn’t accept it. Eventually the Africans would be an ethnic minority on their own continent and would be little better than slaves. Only the Africans who acted like they were Chinese would be allowed to advance in society. The rest would be doomed to be farmers or factory workers toiling for the Chinese.

    This is exactly what happened in Tibet and East Turkestan, and what Beijing wants to happen in Taiwan.

  • How did people mine gold in Africa during the medieval period? Did they use pick axes, shovels, and hoes?

  • You know how all nations generally have a distinct political climate, right? For example, the general attitudes, key issues, nature of elections, voter sentiment, etc. Those in the United States are slightly different from those in Brazil which are slightly different from those in France which are slightly different from those of India.

    What is it like in South Africa? What is the current political climate of South Africa?

    Wikipedia, my friend.

  • How much money does it take to feed a child in Africa for a year? This is probably wrong but i remember this charity that said something like $7 would feed a child for a month or something like that, but im not sure exactly what it said.
    I was just wondering how much money it takes to feed a child in Africa for a year?
    Thanks!

    $50 dollars a year can feed a child in Africa. Thank you for asking this question and don’t forget to sponsor those children.
    peace…

  • I live in South africa, i am 23 years old. I need to know what i need to study in order to apply for a job as an air hostess at South African airways.

    You dont need to study anything, just find the airline based in South Africa, and apply for it, you need to have a valid passport.

  • How has Malaria effected the net growth in Africa over the last 50 years?

    Probably not too much because malaria is easily treated. Many people in africa take anti-malarials when they develop fever.

  • I am searching for flights offers Madeira to South Africa (Johannesburg). Time period: departure halfway September 2008 – Return 1 month later.

    Can anyone advice which airlines / flight companies? And preferably the cheapest (of course)

    I went looking but found out that prices for such a flight is very expensive.

    Looking forward for your feedback.

    Thanks in advance.

    TAP, SAA.
    It would work out the cheapest if you fly to the UK and then via Dubai with Emirates.

  • I cant seem to find a synopsis, or even basic facts regarding South Africa apartheid. So can you give me any links or basic information to help me out a bit?

    Thanks so much!

    P.S. Im not asking you to do my work, im asking for help to get information so i can do my own work.

    Here’s three sites that should get you a pretty good start on your work. Other items you could try looking up are the figures Nelson Mandela, F.W. de Klerk, and Desmond Tutu. Good luck on your paper.
