Haiti, Somalia, and South Africa. Three disparate places of black populations on the globe, all with similar pathologies to the ones here in America. I think you should have to name a black population with crime, violence, and economic levels equal to the white areas of the US, Canada, Europe, Australia.
Very well, then.
Alright, let's begin with economical stats.
Per Capita GDP:
Botswana has a percapita GDP of $10,700.
Comparing that to several ethnically white nations, Botswana's per capita GDP is higher than: Uruguay, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, Kazakhstan, Romania, Turkmenistan, Macedonia, Blarus, Ukariane, Azerbaijan, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovnia, Aremenia, Serbia, Montenegro, Georgia, Kyrgistan, Moldova, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan.
Botswana's GDP per capita of $10,700 is right below that of Russia($11,000).
Moving on to unemployment rates.
Botswana's unemployment rate(23.80) is in fact better than: Montenegro, Armenia, Serbia, Macedonia, Bosnia Herzegovnia, and Turkmenistan.
It's right on par with the nation of Monaco, and not too far away from Poland(18.20).
Moving on to GDP power purchasing parity. Botswana ranks higher than: Cyprus, georgia, Macedonia, Armenia, Iceland, Kyrgistan, Tajikistan, Moldova, Malta, and Montenegro, among others.
Moving on to GDP real growth rate.
Botswana's economy is growing faster than: Bosnia and Herzegovnia, Croatia, Romania, Norway, Slovenia, Macedonia, Cyprus, and Greece, among others.
Botswana's infant mortlity rate is better than Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Azerbaijan, and on par with others.
Now for the "Botswana owes everybody because it gets so much darn AID" argument. Botswana's external debt is in fact the 40th lowest in the world. That places it in better straights than: Tajikistan, Albania, Armenia, Moldova, Georgia, Macedonia, turkmenistan, Bosnia and Herzegovnia, Belarus, Estonia, and Lithuania, among others.
If they are getting "way too much AID", they sure do a good job paying it back.
All of that info came from here:
https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications...rderguide.html
Moving on to world corruption.
http://www.finfacts.com/corruption.htm
Botswana is the 37th least corrupt nation on Earth. This puts it above: Cyprus, Hungary, Italy, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Latvia, Slovakia, Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey, Poland, croatia, Moldova, Serbia, Armenia, the Ukraine, Macedonia, Albania, Kazkhstan and Russia. There are others as well.
Yes, you heard me correctly. The leaders of Botswana(The BLACK leaders) are less corrupt than the Greek, Italian, and even the Polish governments, among others.
Moving on to Quality of life.
Botswana is ranked somewhat low in this survey. The reason? AIDS. People die really fast, and that is a major component in this survey. However, despite the epidemic, Botswana at place 52 overall. That puts it on par with or higher than: Russia, Uruguay, turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Ukariane, Moldova, Belarus,Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, kyrgystan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Bosnia and Herzegovnia, Macedonia, Albania and Kazkhstan.
These are all ethnically white nations. Quality of life is based on Material well being, health, job security, family relations, gender equality, and social and community activity, among other things.
With all these factors in mind, Botswana (A black country)betters each and every one of those white nations listed above.
That means you will mostlikely be better off in Botswana than you would in Russia, for example.
I should add that Botswana is within 10 rankings behind Latvia, Lithuania, Argentina, Poland and Croatia.
Now, finally, to crime rankings.
*Note: I don't want to hear anything about unreliable statistics. Botswana's corruption rate, as I've shown, is on par with most of those other nations, if not higher. It is one of the few nations in Africa from which reliable criminal statistics can be obtained.
In other words, these stats are reliable. If anything, they are more reliable than the stats of some eastern European nations, who have been proven to have higher corruption rates.
Moving on. Look at murder rates for the world.
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cr...ers-per-capita
Note that Botswana is not even on the list. You'll see some other black nations near the top of that list, but not Botswana. Why? because it's murder rate is simply too low. Look at each and every white nation on this list. They are automatically more prone to murders than botswana(per 1000 people).
Analyzing some more here:
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cr...ers-per-capita
Manslaughter rates are higher in Romania, Italy, Turkey, Estonia, Bulgaria, Russia, Lithuania, Latvia, Portugal and Poland.
I'll stop right there.
Would you like me to compare other black countries as well? Because Botswana isn't even the most successful. let me know if you do.
*Note: I did include nations such as Turkey, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and others on this list. The reason? The people in these nations are indeed racially caucasoid/cuacasian.
If you really also want me to go purely by racial classification alone, I can include much of North Africa and the middle east, most of whom are racially Caucasoid. But for the sake of this post, I shall leave it at this.
Let's also look at corruption:
http://www.finfacts.com/corruption.htm
The Barbados is ranked ahead of places like Portugal, and it's barely even behind Spain. Botswana is ranked 32nd, far ahead of a large number of ethnically white nations (note that the higher you're ranked on this list, the better)
Heck, even Burkina Faso is ranked right on par with Poland in terms of corruption. Who would expect that?
Keep analyzing that list for more info.
Also, let's look at quality of life a little bit more:
http://www.economist.com/media/pdf/QUALITY_OF_LIFE.pdf
Scroll down, and find Barbados. You'll notice that it's just a couple spots behind Britain on the list.
It's ahead of places like Hungary, Argentina, Czech republic, Poland, and Croatia. it's ranked 33rd, btw.
Ghana is rather low on this list. however, it is ahead of Russia, Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus, and a couple of other white nations.
You can live better in Ghana than you can over in Russia. Go figure.
Oh, but wait: there's more. You can live better in Jamaica than you can in Estonia, Latvia, Albania, Serbia, Georgia or Macedonia. And all of those countries are worse off than Trinidad and Tobago.
Do you want me to keep going?
