More West Coast Quotes

When the Europeans finally made it down the west coast in the 15th century, they found few natural harbors for their ships. Unlike Europe or North America, where the jagged coastlines give rise to natural harbors, much of the African coastline is smooth. And once they did make land they struggled to penetrate any further inland than roughly 100 miles, due to the difficulty of navigating the rivers as well as the challenges of the climate and disease. — Tim Marshall

By size, population, and natural resources, Nigeria is West Africa's most powerful country. It is the continent's most populous nation and is formed from the territory of several ancient kingdoms that the British brought together. Its people have been mismanaged for decades. In colonial times the British preferred to stay in the southwestern area along the coast. Their 'civilizing' mission rarely extended to the highlands of the center, nor up to the Muslim populations in the north, and this half of the country remains less developed than the south. The Islamist group Boko Haram, which wants to establish a caliphate in the Muslim areas, has used the sense of injustice engendered by underdevelopment to gain ground in the North. When the Nigerian military come looking for them, they're operating on home ground and much of the local population will not cooperate with the military either for fear of reprisal or due to a shared resentment of the south. The territory taken by Boko Haram does not yet endanger the existence of the state of Nigeria; but they do pose a daily threat to the people in the north and they damage Nigeria's reputation abroad as a place to do business. — Tim Marshall

The only problem was I needed to use my own group, and things didn't happen until I did. It wasn't a real country sound, what I did.

I love New York, but it's a rough city. It's not dangerous now the way it was in the 70's or the 80's, but it's still a rough city. It's hard to hack it there.
