Why did africa get worse when europeans arrived?

According to some research africa use to be independent and also the people didnt have aids or anything. also there use to be major kingdoms and towns and now they're all gone now.

ethnocentrism...the Berlin Conference...Atlantic Slave Trade (AST)...influence of Christianity was a huge factor...

remember that most of (Western) Europe operates the way the romans did way back then...(& the greeks b4 that)...& you're right, African nations were thriving, & many of them thought that commerse, trade, alliances with Europeans would help them to thrive even more, but like any power-hungry nation, they cunned smart people (Lewanika of the Lozzi Tribe)...kind of like, the survival of the sneakiest

I honestly believe that this has happened throughout the history of man kind

It didn't
We brought you into the modern age, "or at least tried to"
now you have guns, cars, even some computers and other things.
Most countries there have electricity thanks to us.
and we give you food and medical treatment thanks to the UN/other organizations that donate things to you.

The USA tried to feed Africans in Somalia but what did they do in thanks?
They shot down 2 helicopters and killed about 20 US soldiers while dragging their bodies through the streets.

What else, other than black on black killings that you all some how blame whites for.
I think it is just an African thing.

The middle east gets bombed on a daily bases, they are out in the middle of the desert and still manage to live somewhat civil, they have technology and more stable governments.

what, gee, rape, pillaging, slavery, separation, colonialism, neo-colonialism, and no rebuilding plan on money when they left like they do other countries, dont get me started.

Europeans bring destruction.
