Although
the equator cuts the continent's north-south axis into two
nearly equal halves, Africa is generally geographically
divided into two regions with reference to the Sahara, the
world's largest desert: the part north of the Sahara,
extending right up to the Mediterranean Sea and containing
countries such as Egypt, Libya and Algeria, and the much
bigger sub-Saharan region, extending to the coasts of
South Africa.
It
is generally believed that human life first began on the
continent of Africa - some 7 million years ago. Today,
Africa is a continent with a fascinating diversity of
peoples, who make up about 10% of the world population.
These peoples together make up about 50 nations.

The
main reason for visiting Africa is the wildlife together
with a plunge in one of the oldest continents in the
world. Africa is animals by the thousands ...
elephants, giraffes, rhinos, buffaloes, exotic birds .... open prairies where wild animals
roam ... thousands of flamingos taking flight and beautiful sunsets.
And you'll find the
adventure and satisfaction of in-depth discovering inexhaustible. That is the greatest
attraction of Africa: There is no end of things to do and see, no matter how many times
one goes.
