We have the Horn of Africa conflict with Ethiopia, Somalia, and Eritrea. Somalia is the proxy war zone between Ethiopia and Somalia. Ethiopia kicked out the radical Islamic groups from Somalia a few months back that were being supported by Eritrea. It was funny because they did a better job then we have in Afghanistan.
Nigeria has a big problem with not sharing oil money with the poor, so they have started terrorist groups kidnapping oil workers for money and other things. You can't blame them for being poor.
The Congo is in a world of hurt because of years of in fighting and some border clashes for resources. I think they have lost over 3 million people in con flits so far. They owe a fortune as well.
Sierra Leone has problems with Rebels fighting government forces and a lot of dead people in between. None seems happy at all.
Morocco has a ton of people trying to get to Europe from boat off its lands, but its creating a huge refugee problem for the country that it cant handle at all.
Sudan has problems with Dar fur, they are still creating problems for true Africans no Muslim Arabs in the country over resources. Over 2.5 million have been moved or killed. They are starving and dying for multiple reasons.
I don't know how liberia is doing, but it had a lot of fighting. This is the free black state created by America.
I am sure most of them have other problems, Mostly related to Aids, Starvation, Water problems, War Lords, lack of help over all to move up in the world food chain.
I believe all this is just happening to keep the resources from being taken from the land and saved for a later day. They are taking it, but not as much as they could under better conditions.

In Rwanda there was a homicide against the Tutsis but that was in the 1990 something but it did have a great effect on Tutsis.
