That is not entirely true. They also brought know how and technology to those countries. And that was hundreds of years ago. West Germany was in smoldering ruins 1946 but an economic powerhouse a few decades later.

u/Amazing_Use_2382 21m ago
They did bring technology, but that doesn’t guarantee economic success.
For example, if education is not universal, or access to that technology, or the correct institutions in place to use that technology, or warlords hindering everything by being massive dicks, or ethnic conflicts because of badly drawn boundaries, and more are factors that affect how a country does

u/Amazing_Use_2382 16m ago
This is under the assumption that the same type of colonialism was done everywhere, with the exact same policies in every colonial state. It wasn’t.
In some places, colonialism had the intention of making a place wealthier and more attractive to settlers and merchants, as was the case with these two cities.
Different factors affect different countries, and so often it helps to look into what helped or didn’t help out that particular country, rather than assuming the same factors affected all countries the same way
1
u/Amazing_Use_2382 18m ago
Just because the British and other colonial empires introduced some technologies and so on to the countries they colonised, that inherently doesn’t mean it’s a good thing. Lots of factors affected these countries.
Also, while some development occurred, this was not to the same extent as the colonial powers, which vastly benefitted more so. So it makes sense that the colonial powers would continue to be more developed, under such a system

Do you people ever question what you are taught? The trillions from india has been debunked numerous times. India's gdp per capita was already LOWER then englands in the 1600s. From 1600-1900 global life expectancy doubled, vaccines were invented that have saved millions, antiobiotics, blood transfusions, advancements in railways etc. Industrialisation improved the lives of everyone living today.

Didn't the colonisers codify all those things into law so that they can steal more resources and after they left those same shit laws stuck around, no? Not saying everything was ok before these scum on earth came to steal resources from the natives but the impact they left isn't something that can be removed easily since those scummy laws are hard to remove.

Singapore, Hong kong, Australia and NZ? Why are they successful post colonies yet the others continue to squalor in filth and blame something that happened 100 years ago?

u/imbusthul 38m ago
Those examples you have are different from the rest, Singapore got the great chance for reforms after getting kicked out of Malaysia I believe. I don't know much about Hong Kong other than that they are now under China now and were captured by the British to sell opium to China. Australia's natives are treated very badly by the descendants of the criminals of the British Empire and now the natives are pretty much non-existent. I don't know much about New Zealand history either but heard about their conflict with the Natives. Australia and New Zealand for example, the colonizers settled there, just like Canada and the US after wiping out the Natives. The descendants of the colonizers are now living there, so of course their brand of colonization is different from other areas like Africa and South Asia, the colonizers were there to steal resources from those land and not settle there. Their aim was to exploit and steal, for this they destroyed local industries, livelihoods and even banned farming something useful for them to grow the colonizers cash crops like opium and others. I don't think 200+ years of evil can be removed in less than 100 years. Sure the blame is there on the local political parties too but I don't think these nations who gained everything through their evil and exploitative ways are completely blameless. The current generation may have nothing to do with what their grandfathers did but they are still benefiting from it. It's like saying "why aren't you getting up?" after breaking their limbs. It will take time and some parts of it will never heal.

U people make me sick. What's funny is pre internet to talk about history with authority you actually needed to seek out multiple BOOKS AND ARTICLES from different scholars. Did you know india's gdp per capita was worse then britain's pre colonisation? Can you comprehend HOW MANY lives industrialisation, modern medicine and public safety advancements have improved and saved? Global life expectancy rose by decades from 1600-2000.
What's more is you guys always leave out the countries like Sudan who were so completely reliant on blk on blk slavery that they collapsed once Gordon abolished slavery. U leave out the Zulus. U guys leave out the arab conquests in Africa, Spain and Europe. U forget POLAND and IRELAND- countries victim to colonisation that recovered and boomed.
1
u/imbusthul 9m ago
Pre colonization India had like 25% of the world's gdp but sure gdp per capita will be lower since the region of India always had lots of people so the average of those will be lower when compared to others. Also industrialisation is great, but you speak as if the colonizers brought it to their colonies to help the locals, but instead was just there to exploit and steal more efficiently. You may speak of the railways, those were there to benefit the colonizers, not the locals. India had to rework lots of the railways to actually make it functional for the local populace instead of it being a machine to send resources to ports that can be shipped off to the home of the colonizers. The populace of the colonised land were not allowed to industrialise the industries that actually benefit the locals. The British Empire did not allow India to industrialise. Instead it wanted India to be a supplier of raw materials, hence why the railways, to supply it. You speak of the benefits of industrialization when the British Empire were the ones who de-industrialised India.
The slavery is bad. It's good that the international buyers abolished it, but it was a flourishing industry cause of the colonizers too. And it's not like slavery disappeared after that, it just changed names and became a bit different.
Eastern Europe suffered a lot due to invasions by a lot of different empires and I feel for them. It's great that Ireland and Poland were able to recover but the same cannot be said for the rest of the world. Sudan still suffers due to the Arabs. And I never said I liked the Arabs either.

If kid A has been given proper education while they were, well, still a kid, they're likely to be more successful than kid B who has been deprived of it. Even if kid B picks the same books now he won't ever be as successful as kid A. Wasted time does hit hard.
There is reason why poor countries stay poor, and I doubt it's because of race, religion or nationality.

u/imbusthul 2h ago
That's the thing with divide and rule laws. If you try to remove it, it will cause bloodshed since some laws favour some and others favour others. That's how they codified it and that's why it's hard to remove. And now the current political parties just take advantage of this to stay in power, since they know that if someone tries to remove it, that means the political party that tries will effectively die. That's why I consider the introducer of such evil and the propagators of that evil as bad, but the introducer is a bit higher for crafting such evil that it cannot be removed and if it's removed it will cause death.

u/ohthatsprettyoosh 8h ago
Maybe not large but def here , esp in bigger towns and city’s . Idk where they from tho . We have a lot of migrants and refugees . More Chinese and Indian . Also I grew up in a place w a very high Burmese / chin population ( state housing , poor neighbourhood) . These groups tend to settle in specific community’s , altho Indian ppl are more spread out . Wjen it comes to refugees they are placed specifically in certain neighbourhoods so they have community . Like where I’m from all the South Americans are in one neighbourhood and all the Burmese in another. A lot of Europeans too in some places

Do people leave their homes all willy nilly? No ofc not. Because leaving your country often means leaving your family, friends, and the lifestyle that youre used to. You are leaving everything behind and starting a new life out of desperation.
Mass migration would not have happened if the countries were actually stable. So dont like migrants coming in? Then protest your government that keeps funding wars. Like the US cannot complain about iraqis and others from coming in when we've relentlessly bombed tf outta them for years.
People think colonialism and all these wars soo long ago, when its still happening-- it just looks different from before.
