Hello, I was recently curious about the Bush War, I've gathered bits and pieces of information, but especially on youtube there seems to be a lack of objectivity, with most videos being full of phrases such as "everything was fine when the whites ruled, and then the black communists ruined everything", now I can't believe that to be true, while modern-day Zimbabwe is an economic mess, it seems that Rhodesia is often glorified, now I am wondering if any of this has any actual roots in history, was Rhodesia actually a good state (i doubt this due to South Africa and Rhodesia being from my knowledge quite close and Rhodesia I would guess would also have a sort of apartheid regime). I would be really interested in hearing any information, that doesn't glorify a major war and colonial rule into good Rhodesians vs. bad communist Africans.

Thanks, sorry if I've gotten any information wrong, I haven't researched much into post-colonial conflicts.
