    Banner: “I don’t follow. What comes out of Wakanda?”
    Stark: “The strongest metal on Earth.”

    —And we end the scene with a closeup of Cap’s shield. The strong implication is that the vibranium which formed the shield came from Wakanda, and at the time it was assumed that was all there was.
    So maybe Howard Stark went to Wakanda at some point? I could buy that.

    I do agree that Wakanda and their policies on trade/isolationism don't entirely make sense. Wealthy societies and external trade go together *extremely* strongly. The most isolationist country at present is probably North Korea. It doesn't make a lot of sense for Wakanda to follow that model.
