Chapter 11

🦒 Capitals of Central and East Africa

This chapter covers the capitals of Central and East Africa that the essentials chapter left out, from Kinshasa and Brazzaville, which face each other across the Congo River, to Mogadishu on the Indian Ocean. Several countries moved their capitals inland in recent decades: Tanzania to Dodoma and Burundi to Gitega, while their old capitals on the coast or lake stayed bigger. Gabon's Libreville and Juba, capital of the world's newest country, have stories of freedom of their own.
