How the fuck did the French think that Algeria could be an integral part of France without first subjugating Islam?

I suppose I am answering my own question, maybe, but maybe they were mindfucked by the anti-religious sentiments of the French Revolution? They just didn't take that shit seriously?

They could have just embraced the fact that they were all citizens of Rome and tossed out the foreign ideology from Arabia.

The national stadium in Kinshasa is now named after a Belgian priest, arguably because the elites who rule there grasp to some considerable degree that the very existence of that vast territory as any sort of functional entity depends on adherence to some sort of European norms.

It is still basically the most fucked place on Earth.

I would visitโ€ฆ gotta dream I guess.

The thing about Congo is that nobody knows shit about Congo.

It may well be that Belgian rule in Congo (inc. private rule of King Leopold, kek) was one of the least "extractive" and most benevolent of all European colonial ventures.

The Belgians kicked out the brutal Arab slavers, and brought some degree of organization and some "healthcare" and book-learning, which really can benefit a few who take it up.

Everything gets fucked after WW2.

Fuck all communists everywhere, including Hitler.
