  An analysis of Malaria in Africa     In 2015, approximately 3.2 billion people, which is almost half of the world 's population, were at risk of being infected with Malaria. Most cases of malaria occur in sub-Saharan Africa however, Asia, Latin America, and, the Middle East are at risk but to a lesser extent. In 2015, 95 countries had relentless malaria spread, around 88% of the cases and 90% of deaths where in Africa. The pattern between most countries is that they are

improved accessibility across Africa, such as trains, and later, cars and motorcycles. They brought new modern farming techniques. Improved mining technologies laid the groundwork for the future economic basis of several African nations, and making them compatible with the modern global economy. They built buildings and brought new foods, culture, and religions. They brought new forms of education and built new schools and made laws that regulated

Certain colonies suffered due to colonization, others have recovered well such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. Former colonies in Asia, South America, and Africa suffered so much more under colonization than the three mentioned before due to the interests of different European countries. Most importantly many European countries were driven by colonization or imperialism through those processes they were attracted to economic, political and or social power. Imperialism is defined as a

people who live around the world, elephants may not mean anything special. To the African population and wildlife, however, elephants are a very necessary part of their lives. It is extremely devastating to the individuals and animals who live in Africa that thousands of elephants are being killed each year solely for their tusks. One can argue that the poaching of elephants for ivory is a rather selfish act. As of late, ivory

theories of the state, in which the absence of the coherent link between the population and the power structure of the state calls it into question. Ethnic cleavages has been a factor in many of the numerous coups d'etat and armed conflicts throughout Africa, as rival groups see the power of state apparatus as a prize worth fighting for(Warner 2001, p89). One example of ethnic cleavage which can be traced directly to colonial foundations is that of the African/Asian(Indian) divide in Kenya and Uganda

J. Klíma argues that Africa was the most affected by colonization. Colonialism established artificial states which did not respect ethnic, natural and cultural units. Massive decolonization of the countries in Africa commenced mainly after the Second World War. The Anglophone countries struggled for their independence more or less successfully. Great Britain began to retreat from the Empire shortly after 1945. The British government fell back because they could not afford financing of the administration

There is vast evidence that helps support the out-of-Africa theory, and if modern humans first evolved in Africa, there must have been distinct behavioral and morphological changes that occurred before leaving the African continent. Tattersall (2000) examined data from the fossil record, looking for evidence of cognitive and behavioral changes that were necessary for modern humans to acquire prior to spreading throughout the world. Fossils were used to compare the various parts of the skeletal structure

OF COLONIALISM ON AFRICA In this view of the circumstances that existed during history in regards to colonial Africa. I venture to examine how colonialism is viewed, introducing you to a variety of texts which expose you to different views and debates about what Africa may well have been like today, had the colonization never taken place. The African resistance to colonialism put another perspective on the colonization of Africa by the Europeans and the Western influence Africa faced. Each work

The cultural elements that can influence HIV-AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa are the sexual norms, early marriage, widow inheritance and sexual cleansing rituals. Research by Sovran (2016) explained that Africans are often believed to be more culturally tolerant of multiple sexual partnerships, sexual indulgence, and prostitution compared to people in other parts of the world (Sovran, 2016). Moreover, there are different sexual practices that make an individual more susceptible for HIV-AIDS such as dry

years 1500 and 1900, Europeans forced hundreds of millions of people from West and Central Africa to become slaves in the Americas. Once in the Americas, they were put on plantations and worked in brutal, degrading conditions. Millions of Africans were killed in the process. They were stripped of their identity and were no longer considered human, just a slave to the forces of white men. The people of west africa had a rich culture and history, as well as a variety of political systems, such as kingdoms
