Touche, very true my friend. Two sides to it.
Not that Zimbabwe was ever French, but for example take a look at Robert Mugabe.
Most of French West Africa is in shambles for a number of reasons. And yes, their own indigenous leaders do a very good job at destroying a large part of the colonial infrastructure which doesn't help matters.
Of course no one ever wants to claim responsibilty.
Although, I do see a trend in African countries that were colonized by Belgium, France and Portugal. They seem more war prone and corruption persists more so than the British and German colonies. Maybe that's just a large-scale coincidence and a generalization, but it's hard for me to ignore.
Anyway, just my opinion buddy. The US screwed up Liberia a few times too.
