Peak Relative GDP: 0.03% (2014)
Botswana seems to have been largely outside of the pre-colonial empires of Great Zimbabwe and Rozwi. Even though it was nominally a protectorate, by 1892 it was under full British control.
Botswana has had decent economic growth in the 21st century, due to diamonds and other mineral resources.
