you guys are somewhat funny. i mean dont you think its quite embarassing to compare yourself with the third world??? like in particular no other developed country in either europe, tiger-nations/japan, austrialia, such thing would happen, and in fact in US it happend quite often on a large scale.
and you should never forget that the main reson for the mess in the third world is 20th and 21st centeries colonalsm. so mostly british/US/france are responsible for todays third-world issue.

This blackout is news precisely because it's so rare.
The third world portion of Africa, however, is a cesspool because it is filled with countries that are so busy trading cannibablistic military nutjob governments that they can't even run a decent sewage treatment facility.
Amusingly, the only parts of Africa that are not third-world cesspools are the ones where the British (and in some cases the French) stayed around longest.

"Quite often"? What like 4 times in the last 40 years. Get real. You know why that's never happened in those other places you mentioned: because they're TINY. The entire nation of Japan would fit in the part of America that blacked out, they don't have anywhere near the challenges to overcome we do. We've got to generate more electricity for more people and deliver it over a wider area with more variation in terrain and weather.
And learn about calendars. The colonization period was centuries 17 through 19, and the reason we colonized those places is that they already were backwaters. you don't colonize the civilized world. And just to round out your incorrect facts America is ALSO the product of colonialism, why'd we do so good and these guys didn't?

The only time your country was any good *was* when it was under colonialism, dude.

Yep, you're right, it's all our fault. The primitives cannot do anything to help themselves. Why, when things are bad, they go and play cards, wish death upon others that are successful, and then shout at the heavens for their cruel fate.
Poor primitives; it's all our fault.
