So I did a Youtube video about the top 10 African countries with high literacy rates. And what I learned is astonishing. All ten of the African countries in this video above have larger literacy rates than the United States of America. As a 2023, the United States has a literacy rate of 79% every single African country. In the video above has a literacy rate of over 80%. Zambia had the literacy has the literacy 87.5%.
The reason why I like doing videos like this is because it shows that we were wrong about Africa this whole time. You know I remember growing up people were saying Africa wasn't very smart there wasn't a lot more people there and yet here we are with the lowest country at least in this video the literacy rate is 87.5%.
It also reminds me of when I was little, and I asked those same people, "if Africans weren't very smart, why are we always getting African doctors and lawyers and entrepreneurs?" They never answer the question nor give a satisfactory answer.
The part I find even more amazing is that Seychelles is number one on this list with an 98% literacy rate. The government of Seychelles pays for all schooling and college is generally pretty cheap.
Please watch a whole video to know more about the rest of these amazing countries with such high literacy rates.
