Description

Noted worldwide for its abundant wildlife, Kenya is a popular stop for tourists, especially those interested in exotic animal safaris.

At one time is was controlled by the Arabs, seized by the Portuguese, explored by whomever, eventually leased to the British East Africa Company, and then finally gaining its independence from Great Britain in 1963.

The long term impact of severe droughts, and the greatly increased population are major concerns.
