the good things and blessings, poor and divided, generalized disease and
ignorance! Of course the answer is obvious, Fajarat "continent" for as
long as targeted by the major colonial powers. Despite the end of colonialism in

cultural and economic isolation, which contributed to the sons of the continent

and sometimes through the provision of aid, grants and loans conditional, but its

infrastructure, and in some countries, such as Libya, exited the situation out
of control, while plagued countries such as Nigeria, Somalia and Mali in the presence
of fundamentalist movements such as the movement of "young "in
Somalia and" Boko Haram "in Nigeria. At a time dominated by the
continent's poverty, ignorance and disease.
