BEADY

It was like 5%white

>most developed country in Africa
>strong military considering its situation

They decided that housing literally all of the government's enemies in a remote prison where the prisoners were largely unsupervised and could spend days debating and coming up with new plans and bonding with each other was a good idea. Look at the leaders of the main anti-government armies later on, almost all of them were incarcerated in the same wannabe-gulag and built their organizations from there.

Antelope are gay

Trying to be a White State while claiming territory over land that is like 90% African.

>Implying it wasn't a white state

This. Ian Smith and the Rhodesian Front were absolutely delusional, and so high on white supremacist bullshit that they continued to treat the black Africans fighting and dying under their government's command like shit. If they'd had any lick of sense they would've adopted something like the internal settlement from day one, or to hold power picked the Ndebele and treated them like equals to exploit local tensions to maintain their grip.

A White Minority State not a White (Majority) State.

If they wanted a only White state, they better have been prepared to reduce their country to extremely small strip of White Power in a sea of Africans with a tough immigration policy to boot. Then you can have your White State.

>filled with Anglo-Saxon Protestants

What's worse? Having some states where White tribes are stronger than the Black tribes or eating? because Africa could have only chose one.

>(Majority)

>moving the goalpost
Dude, that's exactly what I meant from the beginning. They wanted a White State where the majority of the people in charge were Whites. Problem is they also wanted to be in charge of all that rich territory which Africans live on.

White Majority State- Could possibly work if they were willing to heavily reduce their territory. Not sure for how long though if they decide they need black workers and then the black workers come in forcing the to confront some very awkward questions.

White/Black Rule- Rhodesia could have turned out another way. The Whites allied with a certain favored black group to gang up on another hated Black Group.

>They wanted a White State where the majority of the people in charge were Whites. Problem is they also wanted to be in charge of all that rich territory which Africans live on.
The whites were always in charge, though.

And that's the problem. They were always in charge but their country contained Africans that outnumbered 10 to 1. The greatest fear of the Spartans was that they would face a huge revolt from the majority helots. Once the slaves get guns and/or ideas, they will soon start asking why they did not get a greater share of the pie or why they couldn't be in charge.

In War, the problem soon became how long until Rhodesia ran out of fresh White bodies in this sea of Africans? With all due respect though they managed to keep it going longer than expected.

It gets even sadder once you found out South Africa, a state with similar ideological leanings were forced by Realpolitik to force Rhodesia to negotiate and end it's war because it didn't want to waste it's own precious White bodies and money in a second front when they had their own problems with African revolutionaries.

Should have had economic and not race based segregation.

>most developed country in Africa
Mean all the colonial shit they stole from GB before they declared independence?
>strong military
Fighter planes vs. tribal militias.
Surely a great test of their might.

Yes but they had an empire to back them up before, now if something was to happen to the empire or the relationship to the empire.

Well you're on your own

.. They did fine on their own, what they couldn't manage is having the entire world against them.

I think the most interesting thing about Rhodesia is how it was a microcosm of early British colonial values (from the 1800s-1940s), that lasted into the 1980s. Everywhere else in the 'empire', the ideals that were strived for in Rhodesia, but for whatever reason they survived in that one particular colony.

I feel I'm explaining this badly. It's like in 1920, Rhodesia and Britain would have had identical cultures, but Rhodesia's stayed the same, while Britains changed for whatever reason.

Racism

Racism

Hate destroys nations

>Racism
Nothing wrong with that
>Hate destroys nations
Racism isn't inherently hateful. Bigotry might be.

>t./pol/tard complaining about the white "genocide"

the segregation in Rhodesia was racial but could be seen as an economic one stratified on racial lines (imo both, Rhodesia is basically Britain with all it's class disparity).

Oh you mean that wilderness devoid of civilization?

The blacks should have just migrated into the Congo instead of getting in the way.

Didn't last for 1000 years

If the normans looked different from the Anglo-Saxons do you think there would have been a similar situation?

No because the cuck only cares if it harms white people, he wanted white rhodesians to live among the unciviilized savages that gored them decades ago when Mugabe won.

You would think the Bongs would learn from what happened in Haiti that nigs cannot live around white people in peace.

they always needed Black workers user.
The biggest criticism to the race polices in Rhodesia and South Africa is them being too fucking pussy to really do it because it would hamstring them so fucking hard since now the poor whites have to fill that gap and the economic advantages they had from a base of workers with extremely low wages Imagine Black workers in the American South but reverse the population %age's. Instead of that small population of Blacks undercutting the poor white job market instead the poor whites are in a tier separate from Black in the job market because they can go for jobs reserved for whites and have more investment into them for training.

The segregation and "separate development" polices of the two states was always dishonest with itself completely because the reality of implementing completely wholeheartedly would fuck themselves over..

>If they wanted a only White state, they better have been prepared to reduce their country to extremely small strip of White Power in a sea of Africans with a tough immigration policy to boot.

If they kept a white's only policy they'd be flooded with Portuguese seriously. Honesty to God the state would be borderline lusofied.

Rhodesia never needed niggers it needed white people, the brits breed too damn slowly thats why they had a manual labor shortage that niggers could fill in.

It kinda is. You can distinguish Brits heritage and location by looks. I know some /int/ Brit lads who basically despite being top notch lads and well off could be sniffed out that they were once poor or family in a poor area historically.
