What happened to Rhodesia? (Short Animated Documentary)

It got fucked over by the civilised world, a black dictator seized power, murdered a bunch of white people, scared the rest away and turned a functioning civilised nation into a 3rd world shithole

The same fate befell South Africa.

*Voting

Vote was based upon both wealth and education, if you had a higher education you didn't need the same wealth requirements. If you were a Black chief of headsman you automatically got the vote, and in Ian Smiths autobiography Bitter Harvest the aim was for Blacks to achieve the full franchise through integration into the Rhodesian culture. However Mugabe's militants threatened Blacks with the franchise not to vote before majority rule was established.

Geezuz, history matter, no need to call them gorillas!

What you failed to mention is that after the war everything in that area went to shit. And that Rhodesia was a meritocracy that planned to be ruled more equally after the next generation was educated, as the new native African generation would have the knowledge to run a industrial society. It was not an apartheid state and many think it was. And many African natives fought with the Rhodesians. It was not a race war as many have been led to believe.

The fall of Rhodesia and even what happened to South Africa is the modern equivalent to the fall of Constantinople

The late '60s TV show Special Branch had an episode (S1E7, "You Don't Exist") where a young woman had been denied entry to the U.K. on her Rhodesian passport and Special Branch had to look after her until she could be sent home.

Woke crap by an idiot

What did Zimbabwe use for light before candles? ... Electricity.

I'd rather be starving in the dark than be racist; that's why I support Zimbabwe!

Im a zimbabwean citizen and most of the farms are not being used😢😮

You forgot the genocide that followed. Guess that doesn't matter when its evil white colonisers!

TLDR: They got rid of white people so inevitably the country went to shit

How is this place today? I have to imagine it’s an amazing place.

We betrayed them.

TYRANT SMITH and his cut-throats destroyed the lives of millions of black people. Now Zimbabwe is free to decide its own fate, good or bad. It does not have to refer to whites anymore. Their future is up to them without the yoke of apartheid. Gday now from Australia 🇦🇺.

Turned to shit soon after it collapsed

Rhodesia's Hierarchy was no different to pre-"Enlightenment" hierarchies. And like the older hierarchies, Rhodesia worked. For that heresy against Equity at All Costs being pushed by Bolsheviks in Anglosphere, Rhodesia had to be destroyed.

Rhodesia showed the world what afrlca could have been
Zimbabwe showed what it is

Bolshevik joos are always the ones hiding in the shadows orchestrating anti yt sabotage

Rhodesia was betrayed by the west. RIP Rhodesia, you were a fine country.

gonna piss off my zimbabwean teacher by calling harare salisbury

Is Zimbabwe is a pretty clear-cut example of the savagery of colonizers.

The land belongs to the khoisan (brown Africans) not black africans.

This comment section is so shitty wtf, filled with literal colonization apology and hate speech

And Zimbabwe is now worse than it was, serves them right

So Africa went black and it never went back. Haha now it’s a starving waste land that only mines gold and diamonds with child labor. They should have stuck with England.

An even quicker explanation.
Black people took over and it turned to 💩

It’s hard to have majority rule if the majority hadn’t discovered the wheel by the time the “colonist” moved in.

biased ahh video

At least South Africa is flourishing under the ANC... oh

White genocide. And now it's in the west.

White excellency destroyed by black/brown mediocrity. Many such cases

The Rhodesian commandos were bad ass. Seriously some of the most efficient and effective fighting force the world has ever known. Rhodesia as it happens had an economy that rivaled the U.S. and its currency was more valuable. Further it EXPORTED food to the rest of the world….crazy to think what would have happened if Ian Smith was allowed to transition to majority rule as he planned.

Now they’re begging white people to come back 😂 Zimbabwe was the bread basket of Africa now it’s the armpit of Africa

Rhodesia will never die!

What a load of biased drivel this is 😅

guys it video about Rhodesia not zimbawe hence hes not talking state of zimbawe it was dumb as hell

I remember as a kid, there was a magazine called "Soldier of Fortune". It always had recruiting advertisements in it for the Rhodesian Army.

And they lived happily ever after.

And under the leadership of Mugabe Zimbabwe went from strength to strength.

Hungry would want to own that, looks like Transylvania

Lot of white supremacists in the comments lol, idiots

The spirit of the ZANLA freedom fighter negated the existence of a European ethnostate on African soil!!
