How did they do it?

Americanization.

Why did they kill the trees?
>>
>>18439238
It's not the same street. Look at the trees in the top and middle, they don't match and neither does the placement of buildings. Top seems like a suburb or suburb adjacent (see the chicken), middle seems like a regular roadway in a non-suburb area, and bottom is a commercial district with shops everywhere. Y'all fall for this shit so easily.

And yes, reverse searching the image has no exact matches other than AI schizoslop, it's a collage of images from different locations.

The power of capitalism, good governance and high intelligence.

This cope is so pure it's classified as a narcotic and only obtainable on the black market.

Same way as the rest of the world.
The 1973 pic isn't exactly showing africa tier poverty

this
I don't really understand why Wumao and Sinophiles think that pic is impressive or exceptional. Even the biggest African shitholes nowadays have at least one major city with paved roads and skyscrapers

>>18439279
That's actually extremely slow in terms kf scale of development. You do realize France was in the region for quite a long time and the mkve tk Dakar was basically a shitty prestige decision. So in abandoning Saint Louis they ended up with Dakar which was still very lacking vs most colonial cities in Asiaa and versus several cities in South Africa.

It's interesting to see a time lapse. Simple as that.

And the vast majority of colonial Senegal was basically either haciendas for corporate entities and welfare jobs for French people who couldn't hack it in France because a work term in Africa was either for resume padding, some form of pseudo banishment, or you were porr/had no networks and couldn't get somewhere else like the Carribean, mainland France or some scant parts of the East.

Dunno bro, going from neolithic huts to a modern city in 80 years seems like pretty fast development to me

>You do realize France was in the region for quite a long time
They took over the Dakar area in the 1860s
In less than 100 years they turned it from a prehistoric village into the most developed city in West Africa at the time of the independences

>which was still very lacking vs most colonial cities in Asiaa and versus several cities in South Africa.
But South Africa was a settler colony.
It was full of white people who built cities for themselves.
Dakar was built with way less white people available, and for negroes mainly.

Hey it'a thw crazy giy who doesn't know what Neolithic means. Also Dakar was still extremely behind the times. It was not representative of the whole colony you know.

You ignored the part about Saint Louis. Read up on that before you speak.

>But South Africa was a settler colony.

Nope. It used a ton of non-white labour and had plenty of them in the cities. Your copea hold no weight. Also the crappy policies that focused on extracting as much resources as possible while barely investing in human develpment held back both colonies in similar ways.

Those people at top look hungry.

Why is that exactly?
>>
>>18439238
That's a dirt road.

The trees help keep the soil in place because they have root systems that can interlock.
>>
>>18439139
it took them 50 years to build a road? man chinks are dumb as hell
