Question
J.P. Daughton’s book In The Forest of No Joy studies one of these projects that, along with rubber harvesting, triggered the War of the Hoe Handle. One of these projects from the 1970s was an early foreign investment by the PRC and is called TAZARA. The CGR managed these projects prior to the formation of the SAR using the “Cape” standard. Portugal’s “Pink Map” created problems for one of these projects proposed by the founder of (*) De Beers. A political cartoon in Punch of a man holding a telegraph line while standing across Africa symbolized Cecil Rhodes’s vision of building one of these projects across Africa. For 10 points, Rhodes planned to link Cape Town to Cairo with what type of transportation infrastructure? ■END■
ANSWER: African railroad [accept equivalents like railway; accept train network; accept Cape to Cairo railroad; prompt on transportation project; reject “road”]
