| An illustrated map of Africa showing the 54 countries |
It is sad to say and actually a thing of concern that so many people in other parts of the world especially Europe, North America and South America up till now still regard Africa as one tribal area where people live on trees or like just a single country. This has prompted me to take out some time to compile a list of all the countries in Africa along with their capitals for our readers to see.
A LITTLE WORD ON AFRICA.
For those who do not know, please permit me to inform you that life began in Africa, yes that is what is what all the present archeological findings and evidences say. So Africa is the mother earth and the Home of all black people and some white people too.
Africa ranks as the second-largest and second-most-populous continent in the world. In land mass Africa covers 6% of the total surface area of the earth and as well occupies 20.4 percent of earth's total land area.
The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent includes Madagascar and other numerous Islands.
Africa's population is the youngest amongst all the continents
