Summary
Clearly, the African continent is full of valuable natural resources (note that we didn't even discuss other resources such as gold, bauxite, maize, peanuts, etc.). Can African countries use these resources to improve their economic condition? With the current politicial instabilities in many of these countries, it certainly is a challenge. But with an increasing global demand for oil and diamonds, it is important to pay attention to how these resources come from the ground to our homes.
