"Those darn whites took all the magic out of Afrika"

crime

There was definitely people who went against the customs and rules of their own societies. There was also a fuckton of inter-tribal warfare. It was not a peaceful place.

police

Police are a bad thing, now? Also, if people broke the 'rules', they would have been thrown out of their societies or killed for their crimes. The only difference being, when there is smaller populations, there is less of a specificity of roles in the community. Many of them would have been too small to support dedicated police. And thats if your assertion were even true. Which I doubt.

inflation

To be fair, I don't know how their economies function in africa prior to europeans showing up

unemployment

Because if you didn't work to support the community, or hunt for your food, you starved. and died. Again, different community structure changes how jobs and employment work

AIDS

Not a problem introduced by white people, AFAIK. SIV / HIV originated in apes/monkeys in africa.

Poverty

only the tribal leaders were rich. Everybody else; poor

famine

depends on which part of africa. The jungled areas wouldve had more food, and no famine. The desertified areas would have been almost entirely famine

corruption

between warring tribes who would do whatever the fuck they wanted if they were strong enough, to corrupt politicians in egypt etc... yes. there was corruption.

debt crisis

In all honesty, I have no clue how international debt works now, or how it would have worked back then. I'll move on...

prostitution

is literally older than human civilisation, and occurs in other species. do you HONESTLY think that it didn't occur in africa? If you do think so, you're retarded. and delusional.

wife beating

depending on the size and advancement of the tribe/country and their overall treatment, but women were taken by force to be wives and raped. This was common in almost all civilizations at some point.
