Encompasses Cameroon, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Gabon, Republic of Congo, Cabinda, and Angola See also Eastern Africa Guinea Coast Southern Africa , and Western and Central Sudan Pablo Picasso to the British Vorticists to explore new subjects and methods of visual representation. The imposition of colonial boundaries and governmental systems gives rise to developing national consciousness among many Central Africans, inspiring movements to achieve political independence and reclaim indigenous African identity, such as Mobuto Sese Seko's "authenticity" campaign and Tshibumba Kanda Matulu's series of paintings on Congolese history. In what is today the Democratic Republic of Congo, a ritual expert ( nganga ) and the Yombe artist known today as the Chiloango River Master collaborate on the creation of a corpus of distinctive minkisi , or monumental power figures, called Mangaaka. Used by diviners to consult the spiritual realm for solutions to earthly crises, these works are characterized by their massive scale, naturalistic appearance, and intricately carved representations of knotted fiber headgear. The White Fathers, a Catholic missionary group organized to seek conversions in non-Christian areas of Africa, is established in the southeastern Congo. Originally seeking to carve out an independent "Christian Kingdom" within territory largely inhabited by Tabwa and related peoples, the White Fathers sponsor missionary schools and produce dictionaries, grammars, and a translation of the Bible in the local KiTabwa language. After 1900, as control over the Belgian Free State is consolidated and ultimately transferred to the Belgian republican government, the White Fathers abandon territorial aspirations and focus on conversion. Large numbers of indigenous religious sculpture as well as trees and stones associated with earth spirit sites are destroyed, while others are confiscated and sent to White Fathers headquarters in Belgium and Rome.

Described by one contemporaneous critic as the “Michelangelo of the Menagerie,” Barye imbued his animal subjects with monumentality and drama. Frequently working at the Jardin des Plantes and the Museum of Natural History in Paris in the mid-nineteenth century, Barye applied the latest discoveries of modern zoology to his creations, lending a sense of accuracy to each and every beak, fang, and tusk. Works include bronzes and watercolors and range in subject matter from tender treatments of woodland creatures to violent confrontations between exotic species. Read more about the exhibition.

Globalization is discussed as problematic in general terms but when more specifics are provided on FDI it is learned that the situation is not quite so clear cut. The future of FDI is seen as positive as it respects Africa. Various aspects of Africa are discussed inclusive of the physical and political environment. The economy is discussed as well.

In other words, everything that had occurred in recent world history led up to and influenced the coming of the French Revolution and then the Revolution influenced everything that came afterward. Examination of this topic shows that there is a great deal of validity to the position that the French Revolution was the most significant historical event of this era. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

According to the biennial Unesco World Science Report of 1998, Africa is little more than a bystander in most international science issues. Africa, the report says, has for instance failed to make an impact in the development of new materials and products. It watches as breath-taking leaps are made in the fast-moving, far-reaching information technology and communication industry. The Unesco report says a 1992 survey in Africa counted a total of 20,000 scientists and engineers who represent only 0.36 per cent of the world's scientists. Africa, another study established, is responsible for only 0.8 per cent of the total world scientific publications.
