Indeed, before 1945, in general the world Asia and Africa are the colonies of Western nations in various forms. But since 1945, many in Asia and Africa became an independent country and many are still struggling for the independence of their nation and people such as Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco in North Africa; Vietnam in Indo China, and at the southern tip of Africa. Some Asian and African countries that are free are still many problems that face the rest of the occupation of West Papua as Indonesia, India and Pakistan have been displaced because their land was forcibly occupied by Israeli forces in the Bantu by the United States.
Meanwhile, the nations of the world, especially the nations of Asia and Africa, are being hit by concerns due to increasing development of nuclear weapons that could destroy mankind. The situation in Asia in several African countries which are now independent and still there is a conflict between communities as a result of the colonial period (divide et impera politics) and the cold war between the blocks world.
