Very interesting. It's impossible to visualise such a vast continent. As a Brit I can't imagine living anywhere where the sea is thousands of miles away.

Immapancy = insufficient geographic knowledge. A new one on me.

Looked this one up as well :- the practice of cutting or shaving some or all of the hair on the scalp as a sign of religious devotion or humility. The term originates from the Latin word tonsura

That's amazing! It makes you realise how difficult it must be to solve all the problems they have in Africa!

On the other hand the potential is enormous but they need to consolidate perhaps.
