AFRICAN CONTINENT- Regions And Country. by chenny360(m): 11:27am On Jan 21, 2022
I think this should be included afresh on Nairaland. Ok let go..

Brief geographical fact about Africa.

___ The continent of Africa contains approximately 1.369 billions people spread out of over 54 countries.

__ The United nations Geoscheme divides Africa continents into 5 distinct Subregions namely 1 Northern Africa, 2 Middle Africa. 3 West Africa. 4 East Africa. 5 Southern Africa.

__ Northern Africa is the largest of the Subregions by land area while southern Africa is the smallest by land area. Southern African is also the least populous of the Subregions while East African is the most populous Subregion.

__Northern Africa has just 5 countries including _
And southern Africa have 6 countries. East Africa boast of 18 countries.
West Africa has 16 countries in his Subregion while middle Africa has 9 countries..

Note I'll update this thread with Africa Subregions and their countries..

I disagree with the description of Southern Africa. There are far more countries than just 5 around RSA. Imagine saying Zimbabwe is not a Southern African country undecided What I see here is confusing Eastern Africa (larger) with East Africa (smaller).
