While you can argue the word isnt exactly correct, I still find the US to engage in rather exploitative realtions with countries in these continents (and subcontinents).
But most of the blame for these regions troubles do not fall on the US, but rather, Europe. When we carved up the regions to suit our own needs, dividing the countries not by people, but by resources. Which has caused so much suffering in the long term.
And then there are the regime changes. Replacing democratically elected leaders with religious fanatics for more resources...
Either way, SilentChief seems to blame these countries failings mostly on them. When it was us europeans are the ones who set them up in conditions that doomed them to fail, to begin with. And attempts for these people to modernize has been curbed, over our greed.
Edit: Removed some pictures because the US isnt entirely to blame for that.
Curious where do you think these countries would be without European intervention ?
Better off with a high degree of certainty. Both me and Br0kenrabbit have explained why. Feel free to reread it.
In Africa's case, we may have seen more countries in africa beginning industrialization and more being industrialized as of today. In the middle east borders would have been drawn entirely differently, such as a proper Kurdistan, and other things that could have prevented a lot of internal conflict.
