Africa is the world’s second-largest continent. It’s made up of over 50 smaller countries, none of which are named “Africa”. Okay, sure, “South Africa” has “Africa” in the name, but that doesn’t count. It’s the second-most populous continent, too, consisting of over 1.3 billion people and over 3,000 different ethnic groups. In addition to humans, Africa is home to iconic wildlife—including lions, elephants, and giraffes. Most of them, thankfully, live in Africa’s vast savannas, dense rainforests, or expansive deserts, and not in restaurants, airports, or hotel lobbies.
