DID YOU KNOW THE REAL NAME OF AFRICA AFRICA IS ALKEBULAN? HERE'S THE TRUTH ABOUT AFRICA.
I AM AN AFRICAN WHO LIVES IN AFRICA AND THIS IS THE TRUTH ABOUT AFRICA...

The world is vast, just like some of us Africans have some perceptions about Western countries, I guess the same applies to those in the Western countries' perception about Africa. The truth is theory and reality are too different things eg you'll only know the meaning of being hungry when you have once gone hungry rather than reading about hunger from a book.
Africa is a very beautiful continent, however, in some cases it's profiled as to be very backward and it's a jungle. This is not true. Africa has very big cities and modern technologies. Just like we have worldlife in other parts of the world, Africa also has it's wildlife and vast land that we African deliberately preserved.
Africans are very friendly to visitors. It is this friendliness that make them taken advantage of by some foreigners who extort her resources. To add pain on the wound we have self centered, selfish and greedy leaders who take advantage of their people. But, Africans have woken up and enough is enough soon just like everywhere in the world politicians are gonna be accountable and know they are to serve the people and not the people to serve them.
Africa is divided into six parts; Northern, Western, Eastern, Central, southern and Eastern. All these parts you'll find different languages are spoken. Northern African's are mostly Arabs. Western Africans mostly speak French. Eastern Africa English and Swahili is spoken, Southern Africa English and Zulu is spoken, Central Africans speak French and Lingala.
That being said, the African climate is mostly sunny and warm, that's why there are more animals in Africa than anywhere in the world. Poverty is very high in Africa and this is due to bad leadership and truth be said some of the Western countries taking advantage of the Afraican continent. This is evident even by the way natural features are named in Africa from their indigenous names to English names e.g in Kenya we have Lake Victoria, but it's real name is Lake Nyalibale. Mount Kenya's real name is Mt. Kirinyage, Republic of South Africa's real name is Azania, Congo DRC real name is Zaire, Africa itself its real name is Alkebulan. This indicated possibilities of depossation.
The best way to experience, learn and understand abut Africa is by visiting the continent. Here are some of the most fascinating places to visit in the different parts of Africa:
