Here's one example: https://www.pulse.ng/story/7-ways-france-still-controls-its-former-african-colonies-2024072617033075753

Don't feel bad. Many are out of the loop. The west spends a lot of money ensuring most are clueless to what's actually going on in the world.

    That article made me vigorously expel air from my nose.

    What's the #1 way that France still controls its former African colonies?

    "1. These countries must officially speak French"

    Did you know England controls the United States? How? England makes the US speak English. I'm super serial! This isn't a laughing matter, so stop laughing at this matter.
