The African Storm tells the story of the fictional African nation of Tangara, which had been under the influence of Western governments for centuries until the current President (Sylvestre Amoussou) decides to break the cycle of exploitation by nationalizing its businesses, especially those that control the nation's vast diamond-mining operations. Despite aggressive resistance from the Western corporations, the President and his constituents rally together and take even bolder steps toward economic freedom by establishing ties with Russia and China, rejecting the "CFA franc" currency, a relic of the French colonial past in West Africa, and denouncing the disastrous policies of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank.
