Africa Africa is the second largest continent in size and population in the world. It includes about 800 million people living in varied landscapes of green forests, mountains, plains and deserts. 'Mother
Africa' is where humans first evolved. There were many great cultures, including the famous Egyptian and Sudanese, going back thousands of years. In the early 1600's European slave traders and colonizers started moving in, and only Ethiopia and Liberia remained independent of the European powers. Beginning with Ghana in 1957, these colonies eventually regained their independence. There are more than 2000 African languages today, including the widely-spoken Swahili, Hausa and Yoruba.

karakter. Please use the category Regional/Europe/Denmark for Danish websites, written in English. Websteder, der har både en dansk og engelsk udgave, kan eventuelt tilmeldes begge steder. Sider skrevet på andre sprog kan tilmeldes til den relevante sprogkategori under World. Tilmeld - om muligt - i en underkategori der vedrører det land, område eller den ø som hjemmesiden omhandler.

(less...) Dutch In de categorie Regionaal zijn sites gesorteerd op plaats en niet op onderwerp. Sites van bedrijven en organisaties worden dus in beginsel in de vestigingsplaats opgenomen. Bij meerdere vestigingen
worden ze op het best passende hogere regionale niveau opgenomen (land, streek, provincie, gemeente). Sites die een bovenlokaal belang hebben kunnen in het algemeen worden opgenomen in één van de thematische categorieën zoals World/Nederlands/Zakelijk en World/Nederlands/Sport, en een tweede maal in de categorie voor de vestigingsplaats als ze ook van lokaal belang zijn. Voorbeelden: een popband uit Appingedam kan in World: Nederlands: Kunst: Muziek: Bands en Artiesten en in World: Nederlands: Regionaal: Nederland: Groningen: Gemeenten: Appingendam worden opgenomen; een vereniging die zich bezighoudt met muziekonderwijs in Oost-Vlaanderen kan World: Nederlands: Kunst: Muziek: Onderwijs en in World: Nederlands: Regionaal: België: Vlaanderen: Oost-Vlaanderen: Kunst_en_Amusement worden opgenomen. Sites die alleen een lokaal belang hebben worden echter alleen in de desbetreffende gemeente-categorie opgenomen (bijv. lokale overheid, lokale portals, individuele winkels zonder online dienstverlening, restaurants en cafés). Uitzonderingen op deze algemene regels over plaatsing zijn de thematische categorieën op landelijk niveau, zoals World/Nederlands/Regionaal/Nederland/Kunst_en_Amusement en World/Nederlands/Regionaal/België/Bedrijven_en_Economie . Zie hiervoor de omschrijvingen voor Nederland en België. In elke land, provincie, streek, gemeente of plaats worden de volgende subcategorieën onderscheiden: Bedrijven en Economie Gezondheid Gidsen en Indexen Kaarten en Panorama's Kunst en Amusement Maatschappij Nieuws en Media Onderwijs Overheid Recreatie en Sport Reizen en Toerisme Transport Weer Wetenschap en Milieu.

WelshArea Studies Area Studies focus on the history, politics, economics, demographics, and geography of a given country or region (such as the Andes, South Pacific, or Central Asia). Area Studies also create profiles
that can be used to predict or explain current events. Traditionally, they were data driven and often highly quantitative in nature. Relatively recently, many scholars in the field have embraced a more interpretive perspective and focus on more qualitative areas, including religion, literature, music, philosophy, and even art history. Area Studies have key differences with related Social Sciences. Ethnic Studies are written from the perspective of the group being studied. Area Studies, on the other hand, are generally written from an outsiders perspective. Unlike Anthropology, the 'culture concept', is not a central organizing theme for the discipline. Area Studies are distinct from Sociology in that they do not primarily focus on social relationships and institutions.
