Well, good for you. Now explain what you meant by the statement that southern italy is "beyond hope" by its mere proximity to Africa.

You idiot the reference was to ancient Carthage, they were not Black but of ancient Phoenician heritage. Although they were of mixed races their leaders or elite's appearance would be similar to a dark skinned Caucasian. They were probably only a bit darker than the Romans at the time.
