    Africom - ? this is the only missing one

    It’s Kenya, Uganda, and/or Rwanda IMHO.

    It can’t be an African country that’s part of Francafrique, and North Africa is usually lumped in together with West Asia. South Africa and Ethiopia are part of BRICS, so they’re out. The DRC is a country imperialists are plundering for its rich resources, so it’s not a base of operations either. A few African countries like Somalia (?) are under the umbrella of UAE subimperialism, so they aren’t good candidates either. Nigeria is a bit too big to fully control, and it borders Francafrique and the AES.

    Meanwhile, Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda are all former Anglo colonies, they border/are close to the DRC, and they are all very friendly with the US. This map says a lot.
