Destroying the country with tourism? What a joke! The Cabo Verde islands have nothing for natives to survive there. And well.. natives? ROFL! When the Portuguese discovered those islands in the XVth century they were not inhabited. Mainly for two reasons. One, because there were no natural resources there to survive.
Unsure? Take a look at the attached satellite image of the Cabo Verde islands and you will understand.
Except fishing but.. can you imagine Sub-Saharans (Blacks) arriving by sea to an island which is 500km away from the continent.. on their own? Well, that's the second reason why they were not inhabited.
Their income relies much on the few boats sailing south around Africa and, when the Alisian winds move south of the Canary Islands, a few more who sail there from the Canary Islands to then cross the Atlantic to Brazil.
