🌍What is AFRICA?🌍

Africa is the second-largest and second-most populous continent, known for its extraordinary diversity in cultures, languages, and ecosystems. It spans from the Mediterranean coast in the north to the southern tip of South Africa, encompassing deserts like the Sahara, lush rainforests in the Congo Basin, and vast savannas. Africa is home to over 1.3 billion people and more than 3,000 ethnic groups, each with unique languages and traditions.

As the birthplace of human civilization, Africa holds ancient history, with landmarks like Egypt’s pyramids and Great Zimbabwe’s ruins, alongside modern, dynamic cities like Lagos, Nairobi, and Johannesburg. Rich in resources and biodiversity, Africa is also a key center for wildlife, including iconic animals like lions, elephants, and giraffes. In recent years, it has seen rapid urbanization and economic growth, though it continues to face challenges in health, infrastructure, and education.
