The second assumption is that there is something exceptional about Africa, that while other continents and peoples have got or are getting richer, Africans, for reasons we can think but no longer speak in polite company, choose to remain in poverty. Our capacity to see Africa as divergent lets us off the hook so we don’t have to understand our own complicity in the challenges various African countries face today. It also means we rarely rage as we should against the actions of the corporations and governments that profit from instability, corruption or even inexperience (African negotiators at the climate talks have historically been disadvantaged by their lack of experience and the expectation among western negotiators that they should be grateful with whatever they get).
If there is, then, no innate propensity for corruption, violence or poverty in Africa, then the narratives that fuel the stereotypes need questioning. One possible explanation comes from the Nigerian author Chinua Achebe, who said: “The west seems to suffer deep anxieties about the precariousness of its civilisation and to have a need for constant reassurance by comparison with Africa.” Perhaps it’s not Africa that needs saving, but us.

Answer:
ISIS is a jihadist terrorist militia. It controlled territory where more than ten million people lived, in Iraq and Syria. However, the terrorist movement is also active in other parts of the world, including Libya, Nigeria and Southeast Asia. It is known for its well-funded propaganda on websites and social media, with videos of beheadings of soldiers, civilians, journalists and aid workers, as well as the deliberate destruction of cultural heritage.
The group appears to have been established in the early years of the Iraq war, while developing ties with al Qaeda. Then, it separated from Al Qaeda to form its own organization, with the aim of establishing an Islamic caliphate in the territories that at some point belonged to that religion. That is, from Spain to the Middle East.
