African leaders are propagating war

One of the most tragic wars in American history was the Civil War between 1861 and 1865, and to date it still remains the bloodiest war ever experienced on American soil.

After the war, the nation got reunited to begin plans to rebuild, slavery ended, and industrialisation began.

It is always our wish in the African continent that the civil wars in different countries end, and that we too can begin concentrating on developing Africa. The civil war in America, and the civil wars in Africa should only teach us lessons, and we should do more to unite than divide.
