Remember how white people made all those nations poor by interfering?

Like Mongolia and southeastern Europe, it can never be their own fault for running their nations into the ground.

I think the biggest challenge for those nations to evolve isn't poverty, past colonialism or current affairs.

It is the average man/woman unable to change their ways because they were brought up in a society that normalizes them. They have no notion of intellectual growth in absence of all demands for it.

The exceptions to this rule are feared and ostracized. In the west, the exceptions to this rule are supported in all areas of life which encourages their creativity and leadership skills even if the majority are well behind. The progress those few individuals make is then generalized to the rest of the population.. actually even when those individuals are outside their nations, they are brought in.

The first remark includes the nations that were colonized in the past.

I am not really convinced by how poverty is measured.
