instead of asking why Africa's conflicts never end, ask why there is peace on the others. Europe and Asia are perhaps more stable today than they have ever been in most centuries. Could the reason be that a particular economic system that enables the creation of wealth has decreased the desire to invade other nations to acquire it? Maybe imposing capitalism and the rule of law on those that lost the last world war instead of imposing burdensome reparations on them actually decreased the chances that they would turn to war again.
