Like other African regions, East Africa can be defined very narrowly or quite broadly. See the many options in
the East Africa entry in Wikipedia.
The columns below represent the "core" of the region, consisting of the countries most often included, and another
set of countries sometimes considered parts of other regions instead, such as a separate Indian Ocean
region, Central Africa, or North Africa.
|
Set 1 below includes AfricaFocus Bulletins on Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia,Tanzania,and Uganda. As
of 2010, AfricaFocus Bulletin has not carried an issue on Djibouti. Set 2 below includes AfricaFocus Bulletins
on Mauritius, Rwanda, and the Sudan. As of 2010, AfricaFocus Bulletin has not carried issues on Burundi, Comoros,
Madgascar, or the Seychelles.
For background links on all countries, including those not covered in AfricaFocus Bulletin, visit
