Africa is the world's second largest and second most-populous continent . At about 30.3 million km square, it covers 6% of Earth's total surface area and 20.4% of its total land area. With 1.2 billion people as of 2016, it accounts for about 16% of the world's human population. The continent is surrounded by the
Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast and the
Atlantic Ocean to the west . It contains 54
fully recognised countries . The majority of the continent and its countries are in the Northern Hemisphere, with a substantial portion and number of countries in the Southern Hemisphere.
If you ever find yourself drifting through the troposphere high above the scalp of Africa, the engines of your jet clawing at the currents of sub-Saharan air rolling off the jaws of the Ethiopian plateau and down toward the Red Sea, there will come a moment when you’ll have to admit that the cockpit of an aging DC-8 offers a damn fine view of the most wretched place on the planet(as they call it, but we're happy) place on the planet.
Africa is the true définition of humanity, so much people do not die of hypertension 'cause we care about one another and can spot mood changes unlike in the western world where everyone work till they die and all they say in most cases is "hi" to one another.
Despite the challenges in africa,africans are still smiling,we love one another and we'll be great given the fact that we're the jewel of God, all this hard-times will pass just as raw Gold(jewel) passes through fire before it glitters.
Dear, africa
I love you.
