Dear France, What Is Your Crime?

There have been a lot of coups in Africa and all of them are in former French colonies. The French must be doing something wrong

There have been 7 military coups in Africa in the last 3 years. Two coups in Mali in 9 months, one in Guinea, two in Burkina Faso, one in Niger, one in Sudan, and one the newest member of the coup club, Gabon.

Notice something about all the coups? What’s the one thing they all share in common? I’ll just go straight to the point and tell you. Exempting Sudan, all the other countries on the coup list are francophone countries. Yes, Sudan is the outlier because it’s the only country on the list that wasn’t colonized by France.

Looking at the list, it seems that all of the former French colonies are falling over themselves to get rid of France from their countries and national economies.

Do you wonder why?

What has France done to all these countries that they just can’t take any more?
