CHAPTER 5 ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS • How does geography influence the way Lesson 1 people live? • Why do people trade? • Why does conflict develop? Physical Geography of East Africa Lesson 2 History and Government of East Africa Lesson 3 Life in East Africa The Story Matters… Some of Africa’s earliest kingdoms developed in East Africa, where trade in gold and ivory brought great wealth. Since ancient times, thriving trade has fostered interaction among different cultures, influencing language and religion and creating much ethnic diversity across the region. The landscape of East Africa also has great diversity—from the Serengeti Plain and the Great Rift Valley to the highlands in Ethiopia and Kilimanjaro in Kenya.

Landforms The Great Rift Valley is the most unusual feature of East Africa’s physical geography. Sometimes it is called the Great Rift system because it is not one single valley. Rather, it is a series of large valleys and depressions in Earth’s surface. These are formed by long chains of geological faults. The Great Rift started forming about 20 million years ago when tectonic plates began to tear apart from one another. Africa was once connected to the Arabian Peninsula. SAMPLERBut as the two rifted apart, or separated from one another, the land in between sank and was filled by the Red Sea.

From Jordan, it stretches about 4,000 miles (6,437 km) to its southern end in Mozambique in southeastern Africa. The rift has an average width of 30 miles to 40 miles (48 km to 64 km). The rift system has an eastern and western branch in East Africa. The eastern Rift Valley—the main branch—runs from Southwest Asia along the Jordan River, Dead Sea, and Red Sea. It continues through the Danakil plain in Ethiopia. It is one of the hottest and driest places on Earth, and earthquakes and volcanic activity occur here regularly. Long, deep cracks develop in Earth’s surface as the tectonic plates rift apart. As the eastern Rift Valley continues south from the Danakil plain, the conditions are not as severe.

  • Conflict Prevention in the Greater Horn of Africa
    UNITED STATES INSTITUTE OF PEACE Simulation on Conflict Prevention in the Greater Horn of Africa This simulation, while focused around the Ethiopia-Eritrea border conflict, is not an attempt to resolve that conflict: the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) already has a peace plan on the table to which the two parties in conflict have essentially agreed. Rather, participants are asked, in their roles as representatives of OAU member states, to devise a blueprint for preventing the Ethiopian-Eritrean conflict from spreading into neighboring countries and consuming the region in even greater violence. The conflict, a great concern particularly for Somalia and Sudan where civil wars have raged for years, has thrown regional alliances into confusion and is increasingly putting pressure on humanitarian NGOs and other regional parties to contain the conflict. The wars in the Horn of Africa have caused untold death and misery over the past few decades. Simulation participants are asked as well to deal with the many refugees and internally displaced persons in the Horn of Africa, a humanitarian crisis that strains the economies – and the political relations - of the countries in the region. In their roles as OAU representatives, participants in this intricate simulation witness first-hand the tremendous challenge of trying to obtain consensus among multiple actors with often competing agendas on the tools of conflict prevention.
