Would Africa benefit from being a single nation the "United Tribes of Africa"? This could be with three tier government, namely: tribal, state and federal. Current boundaries were arbitarily imposed by European colonialism and could be re-drawn by a federal government to reduce violent conflict, nepotism and corruption. Africa has enormous natural resources and the potential to greatly increase food production to banish famine. A single nation could provide uniform healthcare, education and human rights protection. All forms of aid would be easier to deliver and more effective. Virgin could expand operations across Africa and be a shining example of good business practices that others would follow. A progressive reduction in violence and corruption would be good for business and probably result in higher profit margins.
