Africa Some 5 million years ago a type of hominid, a close evolutionary ancestor of present-day humans, inhabited southern and eastern Africa. More than 1.5 million years ago this toolmaking hominid developed into the more advanced forms Homo habilis and Homo erectus. The earliest true human being in Africa, Homo sapiens, dates from more than 200,000 years ago. A hunter-gatherer capable of making crude stone tools, Homo sapiens banded together with others to form nomadic groups; eventually these nomadic San peoples spread throughout the African continent. Distinct races date from approximately 10,000 BC. Gradually a growing Negroid population, which had mastered animal domestication and agriculture, forced the San groups into the less hospitable areas. In the 1st century AD the Bantu, one group of this dominant people, began a migration that lasted some 2000 years, settling most of central and southern Africa. Negroid societies typically depended on subsistence agriculture or, in the savannas, pastoral pursuits. Political organization was normally local, although large kingdoms would later develop in western and central Africa. see Aksum, Kingdom of

History At some point between 130,000 and 90,000 years ago the first true human beings, Homo sapiens, evolved in eastern and southern Africa. These Stone Age humans had the same capacity for thought as modern human beings. They were capable of making tools such as hooks and needles made of bone, and precise stone blades. These stone blades could be used as scrapers and hand-knives, or attached to poles and sticks for use as spears or arrows. By 90,000 years ago Homo sapiens had begun to move out of Africa into the Middle East, Europe, Central Asia, and beyond. All modern human beings are descended from these original African ancestors. A. Early Africans By 40,000 years ago people could be found hunting and gathering food across most of the regions of Africa. Populations in different regions employed various technological developments in adapting to their different environments and climates. The most notable adaptations occurred in response to major climate changes. A.1.

Kingdoms Of Africa Africa was the homeland of several great civilizations. On the gold-rich coast alone, which became the primary area for the capture and sale of Africans into slavery, were the kingdoms of Ghana, Benin, Mali, Ashanti, and the Songhai Empire. These early societies featured highly democratic forms of government with military divisions and profitable trade relations with European and Asian nations as well as with other smaller communities throughout the continent. They were also noted for their educational and cultural institutions. Many factors contributed to the decline of these kingdoms, inclluding the growth of the slave trade. The map right shows the major kingdoms on the African continent. East African Kingdoms kabaka ("king"). Farther to the south, in Rwanda, a cattle-raising pastoral aristocracy founded by the Chwezi (alternatively called Tutsi, or Hima in this area) ruled over settled Bantu peoples from the 16th century onward. Central African Kingdoms Bantu-speaking peoples moving east from the Congo region during the 1st millennium AD are thought to have assimilated local Stone Age peoples. Later Bantu immigrants, called the Karanga, were the ancestors of the present-day Shona people. The Karanga began constructing the Great Zimbabwe, an impressive stone compound housing the royal court, which became the center of powerful gold-trading state. They also formed the Mwene Mutapa Empire, which derived its wealth from large-scale gold mining. At its height in the 15th century, its sphere of influence stretched from the Zambezi River to the Kalahari to the Indian Ocean and to the Limpopo River.

The Eastern Africa Region: The Political Context A . Administrative and political international boundaries The countries of Eastern Africa (defined here as comprising Burundi, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Somalia, and Tanzania) have a number of features in common. First, most countries were colonies. While Burundi and Rwanda were colonized by the Germans and then by the Belgians, Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania were British colonial territories (Tanganyika was taken from Germany at the end of the First World War). Ethiopia was colonized by Italy but only for a short while. Eritrea was part of Ethiopia up to 1993. Djibouti was French, Somalia was Italian (though a part of it was colonized by Britain). Map 1 shows the countries and capital cities, and Table 3 summarizes their key statistics. These countries’ boundaries were established by their colonial regimes, and are largely political constructs. Although they might appear fixed, international boundaries have been fluid and have gone through some adjustments over the past 150 years. Border conflicts are unfortunately still common in parts of Africa—witness the Eritrea-Ethiopia conflict of 1998–2000. These adjustments have seriously impacted the inter-connectedness of cultural and natural systems. Borders resulting from the colonial legacy have split ecosystems as well as indigenous groups. Borders were decided arbitrarily by colonialists using simple geographic features rather than ecosystems’ structures and human and wildlife movements. Rivers, mountains, and straight lines such as longitude and latitude were used to demarcate national boundaries (Griffin

Introduction Background Tanzania has a population of 32.0 million (1998) out of which 29.1 million are inhabitants of the mainland while the 0.9 million are living in Zanzibar. About 49% of the population is under 15, life expectancy is 54 while infant mortality is 103, birth rate is 46; total fertility rate is 7 and population growth rate is 2.8% as per 1997 estimates. Religious groupings include Hindu and Indigenous beliefs (20%); Christian (45%) and Muslim (35%). Though distributed unevenly, high densities are concentrated in the highlands, Lake Victoria Lake plains, the coastal plains and in urban areas. Soil fertility, Industrial and other economic development account for the population distribution. Tanzanians have an interesting story to tell about their origin. It is a fact that the instability in the earth crust during primeval times did split East Africa from mainland Africa by the great Rift valley. One of the sites with most favourable conditions in the valley, turned out to be the cradle of humankind. This is an early ape like creature whose footprints and skull were discovered by the Leakeys in 1959 and 1979. These evidences, which are products of archaeological discovery about the earliest ancestor were, obtained from the Olduvai Gorge and Laetoli. These areas were some of the habitats of the homo habilis and homo sapiens the old Tanzanians who could think and make stone tools. Important artifacts and the bones of the origin of the human species which were left behind have been estimated to be 1.75 million years old.

Liberia Region (see Map 1 and Figure 3A) The security situation in Liberia and Sierra Leone has continued to deteriorate over the last two months and is now affecting an estimated 3 million people in the region. The increase in total population affected since the last RNIS report (2.8S million) is due to revised estimates of the number of internally displaced in Sierra Leone [UNHCR 24/11/94, WFP 11/11/94]. Trend in numbers of refugees/displaced and proportion severely malnourished and at high risk (black area). Current estimates of the populations affected by the conflict are summarized in the box below. Location Dec 93 Feb 94 April 94 June 94 Aug 94 Oct 94 Dec 94 Liberia Sierra Leone Cote d'lvoire Guinea TOTAL Liberia Recent attempts to advance the peace process have achieved little effect on the ground. The Liberian National Conference and a separate meeting held between a number of armed factions, who feared marginalization at the conference, generated several important resolutions concerning disarmament, demobilization and governance. However, it appears that recommendations made at the two meetings are not being followed through and widespread fighting persists with consequent displacement of more refugees to Cote d'Ivoire, and to a lesser extent, Guinea [UNHCR 11/11/94].

Angola - Trend in numbers of displaced/war affected. Nutritional and food security information on affected populations is still patchy although, with some exceptions, most surveys in 1995 have indicated levels of wasting below 10%. Subject to the results of the coming harvest, some agencies are planning to phase out general ration distributions. There are however, still numerous reports of large numbers of people in desperate need of food aid. For example, one recent assessment found 21,000 people in need of immediate food assistance in UNITA controlled Quibala town, which recently became accessible. Additional relief requirements have also been identified in Huambo and resumption of full general rations (rations had recently been cut to half) have been reported as necessary in Cubal given the loss of the maize crop [WFP 25/03/95, WFP 07/04/95]. More recent information from Luena is that wasting levels have continued to rise and are currently as high as 20.3% (see Annex 1 (1b)). Several measures to improve the food distribution system have been taken as a result of this. These include automatic referral of families with malnourished children for enrolment on the general ration programme, opening 20 feeding kitchens serving all children under five years old, ex-camp residents and displaced persons identified as food insecure [WFP 07/04/95].
