Question

Describe the problem created by the Europeans when they divided Africa.

Answer 1

The problem that was created by the European nations when they divided Africa is that they separated tribes, put different-speaking tribes together, and put tribes that were at war together. They didn't care about their cultural boundaries. They just split it the way it worked for them, not the tribes.

Answer 2

They didn't care about cultural boundaries and so they often broke tribes apart by splitting them into different countries or they put tribes that were at war within the same boundaries. They didn't care about their languages either.
