Great read. I also wrote about CAR here. I think people forget or arent aware that CAR is in an over a decade long civil war and that it is basically a vassal of Russia. Even before colonialism that land was probably one of the most unfortunate places to be born to on earth.

Very interesting. Great read. I was fascinated reading this piece. Thank you very much.
I haven't seen those throne photos in years! Great writing as well
Thank you for this informative history lesson.
Any lessons in this, do you think, for our recent aspirants to elective office?
Ozymandias
… Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains.
Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
