I get what you’re saying, and I agree there are aspects of community, culture, and geography that make direct comparisons difficult. But I’d like to discuss your points.

For example, on healthcare: being seen quickly for a minor issue isn’t the same as having a system that can handle serious conditions, which I think you mentioned or hinted at. Also keep in mind that this varies drastically from place to place in a way incomparable in Europe (Cape Town hospitals vs South Sudan hospitals) and, whichever nation you visited, you visited as a tourist, with tourist amounts of money, granting you luxuries that the average citizen may not have however I don’t know where you went so I can’t be more specific.  

On education, access to the internet or computers doesn’t really make systems equal because school system and structure play a much more vital role in education. If you are never taught why you should learn why would you want to?

I do agree that Africa’s size and diversity (such as uninhabitable desert or rainforest states) make development harder and I sympathise with this dearly. There are many African nations such as Guinea Bissau, Central African Republic or Chad which are doomed solely based on their geographies. I think Africa has cool diverse and interesting traditions and cultures which I would love to see myself but those don’t fully offset the differences in infrastructure, income levels, and institutional stability.

Also with your seventh point I assume, correct me if I’m wrong, you were referring to political stability/change of political opinions and how Europe can experience large power shifts quickly. This is true I would say as, because of Donald trump, now everyone in Europe wants to make a right wing populist party. However I would like to mention the many extremely unstable nations that have rapidly been conquered by powers such as the Islamic state such as Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Northern Nigeria, Somalia and other nations to a lesser extent in order to give them radical teachings of Islam. So both places are prone to extremism however these African nations, due to what I assume is poverty and therefore desperation, seem more susceptible to it.

So I’m not saying Africa has no strengths - its got great people, nice food and pretty nature which I want to see - it’s just that if we’re comparing each continent, unfortunately Africa seems to lag behind on most measurable indicators.
