Why aren't there any successful countries in black Africa? My guess is a combination of genetics and bad religion.

Maybe these in the past are why Africa is in the state it is today. But today Abrahamic religions have a stronger presence in Africa than any continent and also Africa is today the continent where natural selection is the strongest. If genetics and religion are what kept Africa down, then the future looks very good for Africa.

Some forms of natural selection are strong in Africa but others are mitigated by mostly Western-originated technology. We just need to stop this and then IMO they would rightfully revert to what they were before others interfered - a few million individuals living in leisured, primitive tropical abundance having their population constantly culled by diseases, thus allowing the idillic nature of the lives of those that remained to continue. This is the situation that it seems nature/God intended for them and I can see why some of them are enraged at being denied it.
