Border countries include Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire), Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. Zambia sits on a high plateau, sloping sharply in the north down to Lake Tanganyika which Zambia shares with Tanzania, Burundi and Congo (Zaire). There are three major rivers; the Zambezi which forms the border with Namibia and Zimbabwe, the Kafue which flows into the Zambezi south of Lusaka (the Capital) and the Luangwa which also flows into the Zambezi. Zambia's most impressive geographical aspect is Victoria Falls which is shared with Zimbabwe. On the Zambezi river at Livingstone, the falls are 2kms wide, 100m deep and 546 million cubic meters of water flow over them every minute.

The population of 28.5 million 995 estimate) is of Arab, Berber or mixed Arab-Berber ancestry. After 1962, the majority of the one million Europeans resident in Algeria left the country, and now s than one percent of the population is of European origin. French still enjoys a high status in Algeria. It is a major foreign language and is still widely read and spoken by many educated Algerians. National radio has a French station. The only TV channel is in Arabic with some French material. The majority of newspapers and magazines are in French, and French is widely used in higher education. Scientific material in school and university text books is almost exclusively in French, while Arabic is the medium of primary education. A law to Arabize local administration, business, politics and the media from July, 1992 was postponed indefinitely, because it was felt that the necessary conditions for adequate implementation of the law did not yet exist. English is also a recognized foreign language in Algeria and is gaining in prestige. Angola The People's Republic of Angola was formerly part of Portuguese West Africa. The country gained independence from Portugal in 1975 after 14 years of guerrilla warfare and a brutal civil war. The population in 1995 was estimated at 10 million. Because of the devastation and social unrest caused by sporadic warfare since independence, it is not easy to assess the language situation in Angola. It is estimated that there are more than 90 ethnic groups in Angola, and numerous local languages are spoken. Over 90 percent of the population speak Bantu languages. There are three major ethnolinguistic groups, the Ovimbundu (37 percent) in the central and southern regions, the Kimbundu (25 percent) in Luanda and the east, and the Kikongo (13 percent) in the north.

Because of the difficulty of knowing this story, it will be told as a connected whole only in lectures. The readings are devoted to three case studies, so that students can learn about culture and history in some detail in a few places. By building detailed understandings of local patterns students will acquire the knowledge with which to evaluate the history told in lectures.

Zambia Introduction This strangely shaped country is one of Africa's most eccentric legacies of colonialism. Its borders do not correspond to any single or complete tribal or linguistic area, nor to the boundaries of any organised society which existed here prior to the arrival of the Europeans. It is one of the most fascinating countries in Africa. Geographical Location Zambia, in Southern Africa, faces Zaire and Tanzania to the north; Malawi to the east; Mozambique to the southeast; Zimbabwe, Botswana, and the Caprivi Strip of Namibia to the south; and Angola to the west. With a total area of 752,615 square kilometres, most of Zambia is high plateau with a flat or gently undulation terrain. Climate Although lying within the Tropics, much of Zambia enjoys a pleasant subtropical climate because of the high elevation. There are three distinct seasons: cool and dry from May to August; hot and dry from September to October; and rainy between November and April. Population Close to 99% of the people of Zambia are African, and about 1% are European. The Africans belong to some 73 ethnic groups. There are 7 major groups who have lives in the country for centuries: Tonga, Ila, Matabele, Lozi, Luvale, Lunda and the Bemba.
