Oh shut up, Africa has every modern conscience as with any other country
First, Africa is a continent, not a country. Second, uh no. I traveled through South Africa, Namibia, Zambia and Botswana in 2009. There were regions with absolutely zero "modern conveniences". I am planning to go to Nigeria early next year and the guy I'm doing business with told me that many areas are practically Stone Age.
I saw similar things in China. Bejing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, etc were reasonably modern. Smaller cities like Yutian were so backwards I was shocked,
