In international relations nations are said to interact due to the fact that not all countries are equally endowed. Due to the principle of comparative advantage, it is not in the best interest of individual countries to pursue an isolationist policy. For this reason, countries in Africa and West Africa in particular have come to see themselves as members of one family.
