The highest peaks in Sierra Leone (indeed in West Africa, west of the Cameroon Mountains) are the Bintumane Mountains (6 390 ft.) and Sankan Biriwa in the Tingi Hills (6 080 ft.) Some of the main problems faced in mountain areas are the frequent seasonal bush fires that also affect the wildlife population. Other serious problems are land degradation and deforestation due to agricultural over-use which lead in turn to erosion and landslides.

Sierra Leone Introduction Geography People Government ... Country List Sierra Leone Introduction Top of Page Background: Since 1991, civil war between the government and the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of more than 2 million people (well over one-third of the population) many of whom are now refugees in neighboring countries. A peace agreement, signed in July 1999, collapsed in May 2000 after the RUF took over 500 UN peacekeepers hostage. The RUF stepped up attacks on Guinea in December 2000, despite a cease-fire that it signed with the Freetown government one month earlier. As of late 2000, up to 13,000 UN peacekeepers were protecting the capital and key towns in the south. A UK force of 750 was helping to reinforce security and train the Sierra Leone army.
