      @@rulisa1131 But how does this “leave alone” look like.
      If west cuts trade. It’s called economic embargo. And west is bad because it keeps African country down.
      If west doesn't cut trade. It’s called exploitation, because money goes to corrupt elite of the state. And west is bad because it keeps African country down.
      If west doesn’t cut trade but gives some demands to political elites to behave certain way. It’s called bullying and breach of sovereignty. And west is bad because it keeps African country down.
      What about development aid? Rwanda’s national budget is around 3 billion dollars. Rwanda is receiving 1,2 billion dollars in aid (most recent numbers are from 2017). That’s like third of all government spends.
      Is that leaving alone?

    As a German flag nerd, I don't think the German flag you showed was actually used. It looks like a draft for another colony. But due to WWI and the subsequent loss of all colonies it was never actually used. On pictures I found the flag that was being used for (all?)colonies was the flag of the German Empire (black-white-red) with the imperial eagle(German coat of arms at the time)in the middle. (So instead of the lionhead imagine a black eagle)Also Rwanda was part of German-East Africa from 1885 to 1918 nowadayas:Rwanda,Burundi, Tanzania(without Zanzibar) and a small part of Mozambique.
