On The Edge - Africa is the Prize

My Grandfather, who had been a very senior Mason, told me over 30 years ago that "Africa is the Prize" and that more wars were coming over mineral resources and land, first by proxy and then amongst major players, he also often said "The Skies will be Crimson" - not sure what that means, but I suspect it was some war or biblical reference, although he did go a bit funny in the head near the end.
