Djibouti, unlike most countries in the African continent, is a predominantly urban state – with over two-thirds of its population living in Djibouti City. The exodus of people leaving rural areas for the capital city has created an even greater demographic divide between urban and rural people – with 85% of the population now living in the capital. The city’s facilities are not capable of processing this number of people, reason why many migrants end up settling on the slums at the outskirts of the city. Although having settled into urban environments, many of these migrants are not adept at living urban lives – which have also been under stress from the drought. The destruction of the already fragile agricultural sector has risen food prices

Chad, a developing country with a high rate of undernourished people, has many different reasons for this. With Chad’s economy evolving, the amount of money the made compared to other countries is significantly lower, causing the malnutrition. Chad’s GDP per capita, the amount of money made per a person, is a shocking $2,600, compared to $57,466 in the United States (Means). People in Chad have a hard time buying the food because it is so expensive; however because Chad does not have enough money, it cannot help the suffering people.Therefore, the fatal situation in Chad remains the same. Civil wars, many occurring in the past 20 years, are another cause of Chad’s developing state. All the civil wars led to lower education for the population

In many ways, Morocco is a country in it of itself. It sits on the northwestern corner of Africa, or in The Maghreb. It is tucked away from the rest of the continent and world by the soaring Atlas Mountains that sit in over 7,638 feet tall , in the South East you will find the Sahara Desert, which only engulfs 10 cities with its sand dunes stretching the size of the U.S. Its climate, geography, culture and history are closely related to the Mediterranean Culture than to the rest of African countries. For this reason tourist and visitors are often shocked by the odd feeling that they visited one of the Mediterranean Countries instead of reaching Africa and more specifically Morocco. In the northern part of the country, its fine beaches,
It’s hard for Chadian’s to survive because most of them haven’t had the right education. Schools in Chad don’t have enough teachers and staff, but they do as much as they can to help them stay educated. I’d say that education is Chad’s third issue. Their second issue is health and their first is poverty. Poverty is popular throughout Africa and isn’t going to be solved because there aren’t enough jobs available for people to

South Sudan’s history doesn't start in 2011 when it gained independence from Sudan. The History of modern Sudan started in the 1820’s with the Turkish-Egyptian occupation. Before that the area of Sudan was controlled by Nomadic tribes and small kingdoms. Although this occupation failed to control all of South Sudan. There were still large areas outside its control. It isn't until the late 1890’s that what is known as Sudan and South Sudan are united under the same rulers. It then took another 55 years for the two territories to be united. After Sudan became 1 country South Sudan spent half a century fighting for independence from the north.
Changes in life are very strong and effective on the personality, point of view, and thoughts toward everything, set aside tiny life changes like cereal brands, hair styles and different routes to work or school, although these changes might cause memorable bad days they don’t qualify as an imprint that might change you as a person. Cultural changes on the other hand, without doubt qualify for imprinting strongly on your life, how this culture walks, speaks, dresses and is seen by the world would without doubt pressure you into changing your point of view in the world, whether it was just a getaway travel to a new place or a complete move or transfer, seeking settlement

Many people were taken from Africa to be shipped to the Caribbean. On average, only 40 percent of the people captured in Africa made it to the Caribbean. The others either died shortly after being captured or on the ships sailing to the Americas. Some were even left behind in Africa to be slaves. The number of people removed from Africa was often equivalent to the estimated annual population growth. Additionally, the youth were the most valuable group of people to be captured. As a result of this, Africa was deprived of many of the young people, especially men, who were supposed to be the future generation of their country. This stunted the growth of West Africa during one of the most important periods in history when other countries were beginning to build their wealth.
During the 15th and 16th centuries, The Ottoman Empire contained most of Southeastern Europe. The Ottoman period lasted for over 600 years, before being replaced by the Republic of Turkey and other Middle Eastern nations. Many of the leaders who emerged in these new nations formed after the downfall of the Ottoman Empire held similar beliefs in the importance of modernization. The efforts put forth by various leaders transformed the Middle East from the state in was in during the Ottoman period, to the modern Middle East.
Current levels of food insecurity in the four countries reflect continued underinvestment in agriculture and livelihoods within the wider humanitarian and development fields. Conflict and drought are forcing people to abandon their homes and their lands. As agricultural seasons are repeatedly missed and livelihoods abandoned, the humanitarian caseload builds and the number of people on the brink of famine rises. With approximately 80 percent of the affected populations relying on agriculture for their livelihoods, we must invest now in pulling people back from the brink. Famine often starts in rural areas and must be prevented in rural areas – agriculture cannot be an afterthought.
