Let's be honest here, the only reason the America and the European Union enjoy wealth today all started hundreds of years of ago beginning with one Christopher Columbus when he stumbled upon what is today Haiti.

Europeans began settling (stealing other people's land) that would soon over time be the backbone of enormous wealth and empires.

It starts with tobacco plantations and then it just snowballed from there. France took over Haiti and began desecrating the land and subjugating the people to cultivate sugar to satisfy European palate.

(((((((((( Haiti remains the poorest country in the Americas and the rest of the poorest countries in the world have been extracted and leveraged to appease the European Union region which remains one of the wealthiest in the world. This isnt because of some innate curse on Haiti. Its because its peoples, their labor, their lands, and their resources have long been embezzled without reparation.)))))))))

The insidious nature of the colonization of the Americas, which started in Haiti, not only terrorized the people who lived there at the time; it also created a system that kept (((((((( indigenous peoples in slavery or perpetual poverty,)))))))) while Europe basked in wealth.

America was founded on and built by slave labor and land theft and no one can argue that. Even today in America we can still see the brutality of those slave plantations in our current capitalistic system which preys upon people of color who work for minimal pay while doing laborious manual intensive labor. The blueprint for that was laid out on those slave plantations many moons ago.

I wouldn't sink the whole Europe into this tho.
