No I mean the average African-American is easily over 10x wealthier, and has far better opportunities than the average citizen of the countries that now inhabit the lands they originally came from.

Because those countries were devastated by Europeans

Those countries were created by Europeans, they didn’t exist before that. The tribes that were there before were not much of a civilization. They weren’t behind the rest of the world because of colonialism, they were colonized because they were behind the rest of the world.

Behind the rest of the world how? Technology?

Would you say Native Americans were behind? They had a thriving society.

In technology, economy, health, longevity, and general well being. Yes, way behind.

"technology, economy"

That's subjective. Maybe happiness is the most important aspect of a society
