OMG!
France eliminated slavery-then tried to ReInstate it in haiti- and then extracted MONEY from Hait from the mid 1800s all the way to almost 1960!
All colonization is due to the desire of the colonizer to EXTRACT- If France ran a deficit for its colonialism maybe it was less effective at the role than other western colonizer?

WTH?
Europe and the USA robbed Africa of minerals, people, art, resources-
