That wasn't your question though...

Your question was -- what would the US and/or world have done if Rwanda had oil or other natural resources?

The answer is probably the same thing.

Hell -- they are doing the same thing as we speak in a country that in 4 years went from pumping virtually no oil and is now pumping 500,000 bbl/d.
