Again, I agree with this somewhat but take it country by country, it's hardly monolithic as your green annotated map indicates. :-) Too many countries and corruption protocols dealing with them all, haha. You would need a small army of grifters, fixers, and lawyers just for a handful or two!

China has invested in many African and other countries as part of their New Silk Road but a lot of it is loans to build infrastructure with potential dual military use. Not that I blame them for doing that from their perspective.

Hasn't the quip always been Brazil is the country of the future? :-) Now the quip is Africa is the continent of the future? That's fine but are the roads, highways, and houses built fast enough? Are the resources being produced enough in a way that's at least an order of magnitude better than the Chinese controlled Cobalt mines in the DRC? For now Kenya seems a relatively safer place to watch this unfold.
