      @@CapraObscura Be so for real. The British literally ENSLAVED the Africans.
      Tf you mean “made Africa great”?
      the reason why Africa declined after the British left was because the British implemented new systems and when they left they suddenly took everything they had in place.
      It left Africa with NOTHING since the British had also DISMANTLED Africa’s original system, meaning they had to build up from ground zero. They were fine before Britain even came! Should’ve just stayed out. 👎

    Yikes..the everest challenge is so different and so dangerous in different ways, especially if you're going for speed of all things lol 😬 in all likeliehood, would need to wait for goldilocks weather and find a more isolated (and arguably far more dangerous) route away from the crowds if you actually want to go for speed?? That's seems pretty fucked and require heaps of pro mountaineering experience lol...especially with how many would have to be in your team PLUS how many sherpas would be involved in the ascent and descent.
