I think it's adorable that you think they "retreated".

Perhaps in another forum I can give you a "low-down" on why the African former colonies are an economic mess, why France and England left physically but not politically or economically, and ofcourse why African leaders visit European powers as one of the first things they do after elections. I may also wax on and wax off about China in Africa. Maybe Libya and the crisis there too.

How about you actually talk about those things, instead of just alluding to them to make the person you're replying to seem small?

I think it's quite condescending of you to think I'm some naive, little child who's seen nothing of the world.

Perhaps you should first learn how to be polite and first try to ask questions, before assuming everyone is dumber than you.
