SOME OF THE FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW
Even a kid can tell, that Africa is the second largest continent in the world with lot's of forest areas and water bodies, that are still in their natural form but not a lot of people know that African also have beautiful cities that can compete equally with some of the cities from the Western. The continent hosts a large diversity of ethnicity, languages and cultures. The environment, historical ties and government systems make the continent different.
