Description

Did you know that Africa is the birthplace of humankind?

In this book, you will travel through the vast continent of Africa. Journey back to ancient times, and discover one of the earliest and most famous civilizations, ancient Egypt. We will then travel through the Middle Ages, discovering some of the largest empires in Africa to ever exist. Discover how Africa has shaped the world as we know it and how the transatlantic slave trade led to the largest, long-distance, forced migration of people in history.

Finally, you will learn how Africa was colonized and how the African people regained their independence.
History will come alive in this interactive book filled with maps, interesting images, fun facts, and engaging activities.
