One-party rule came to an end in 1995 with the first democratic elections held in the country since the 1970s. Zanzibar's semi-autonomous status and popular opposition have led to two contentious elections since 1995, which the ruling party won despite international observers' claims of voting irregularities.

The ROC on Taiwan Some historical evidence suggests that the Yellow River, which originates at the foot of the K'unlun mountains in Central Asia and flows several thousand miles eastward to empty into the Pacific Ocean, may have been the cradle of Chinese civilization. It was along the banks of this river some 8,000 years ago that Chinese culture first flowered. The shift from Neolithic to Bronze Age culture marks the beginning of recorded history in China. In the prehistoric period, the progenitors of the Han people (China's ethnic majority) were scattered in small tribes over the middle reaches of the Yellow River. Toward the close of the Neolithic period, these tribes were already using a primitive form of writing, and had developed a system to measure time and count numbers, called the "ten celestial stems and twelve terrestrial branches." They had developed a variety of articles for daily use, including clothing, pottery, and money, as well as boats, carts, and weapons. Records of this time are primarily transcriptions of oral histories that were written down almost a thousand years later. With a paucity of verifiable facts, a legendary version of the rise of the Chinese nation is taught to Chinese school children as history. This legendary history lists a succession of sovereigns, the dates of their reigns, and their many specific accomplishments. However, the skeptic is apt to question, for example, the 100-year reign of Emperor Yao.

Some of the inhabitants of Banga Bakundu, told The Post that one Ephraim Anjah and Lucas Akwe, who had lived in the village for 30 years, were accused of killing his brother's wife, while Akwe was accused by two people from Kumba, Victor Abah and Pauline Abah, of killing their father. They said it was on the basis of these that in November 2004, the people of the village decided to eliminate the two suspects. They said their actions were precipitated by a letter they received from the Chief of Bako village in the Northwest Province, who testified that Anjah and Akwe were "nyongo people."

Extractions: THE PROBLEM AND THE METHOD This is an attempt to present a brief account of the constitution of the self in Igbo traditional thought. For the present, I shall avoid the use of the concept of person, much as I would concede that this would be about the nearest Western equivalent. One common pitfall in a study of this nature is to introduce ab initio prefabricated categories borrowed essentially from European philosophy, theology, psychology or other science and then try to force African original concepts to pass through their foreign mold. The result is often a distortion of the African idea and a lazy assumption that it has been thought through when it was only superficially scratched. This is not always done overtly or even wittingly. Often there is an effort to define what African concepts are by saying what they are not, that is, that they are like or not like this or that foreign concept. In this way not only is the originality of an African idea sacrificed, but even worse, a Western censorship is surreptitiously allowed to preside over African reflection. To obviate this difficulty, we shall try, as much as possible to work from inside out, in this case, from the native concepts of Igbo culture and, as it were, to let the culture speak for itself without anybody's censures or promptings. One principal resource is the Igbo language itself as we tap it for the relevant vocabulary that has helped from time immemorial to express these concepts.
