Answer:
Zambia
Explanation
Born in 1919 in then-Northern Rhodesia, Nkoloso received a missionary education, got drafted into World War II by the British, took an interest in science during his service, and came home to illegally found his own school. There followed periods as a salesman, a “political agitator,” and a messianic liberator figure, ending with his capture and imprisonment by colonial authorities. During this time people would describe him as a crazy idiot and the reasons were obvious.
His ''Astronauts" were forced to spin around a tree in an oil drum and walk on their hands inside of it because he said that is what walking on the moon would be like.
And then he got mad at them when they quit going to join other things less dangerous and he never really built a space-worthy ship as his lab was constantly moving to wherever his newest workshop was.
