ABOUT KENYA
Kenya is a country in Eastern Africa. Its official name is the Republic of Kenya (Swahili: Jamhuri ya Kenya). Kenya is the 48th largest country in terms of land area, at 580,367 square kilometers (224,081 square miles). Kenya is the 29th most populous country in the world, home to more than 47.6 million people as of the 2019 census.
Nairobi is the country’s capital and largest city, although Mombasa, on the coast, is much older and was the country’s original capital. Kisumu City is an inland port on Lake Victoria and the third-largest city in Kenya. Nakuru and Eldoret are also major cities in the region. In terms of GDP, Kenya will overtake both Nigeria and South Africa by the year 2020.
Kenya is bounded on all sides by other countries: South Sudan to the west, Ethiopia to the north, Somalia to the east, Uganda to the west, Tanzania to the south, and the Indian Ocean to the southeast. There are cold snow-capped mountains (Batian, Nelion, and Point Lenana on Mount Kenya), with huge forests, wildlife, and fertile agricultural districts nearby; temperate climates in the western and rift valley counties; dry, less fertile arid and semi-arid parts; and absolute deserts (Chalbi Desert and Nyiri Desert).

The Hadza, a modern-day ethnic group in Kenya, are descended from the country’s original hunter-gatherer population.
Dating of artifacts and human remains suggests that the first Cushitic speakers arrived in the lowlands of Kenya between 3,200 and 1,300 BC, a time period referred to as the Lowland Savanna Pastoral Neolithic. Kenya’s Nilotic speakers trace their ancestry back to pastoralists who crossed the border from modern-day South Sudan into Kenya approximately 500 BC.
Between 250 BC and 500 AD, Bantu people populated the shore and inland areas. The Portuguese Empire was the first European power to establish a presence in what is now Kenya around the year 1500. However, it wasn’t until the 19th century, when Europeans began exploring the interior, that Kenya was really colonized.
A protectorate was created by the British Empire in 1895, and in 1920, the Kenya Colony was established. Today’s Kenya is the result of these two historical events. The Mau Mau revolt, which started in 1952, culminated in a declaration of independence in 1963 as a result of a number of conflicts between the colony and the UK. Kenya has stayed a part of the Commonwealth of Nations even after achieving independence. The previous constitution, which had been in effect since 1963, was replaced in 2010.
The government of Kenya is a presidential representative democratic republic, with the president serving as both the head of state and the head of government.
Kenya is a member of numerous international organizations, including the United Nations, the Commonwealth of Nations, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, COMESA, and the International Criminal Court. A GNI of $1,840 per year is considered middle-class. There is a lower middle class in Kenya. Kenya has the largest economy in central and eastern Africa, Nairobi is a vital economic center for the surrounding area.
Tea and coffee are the main cash crops, but the export of fresh flowers is on the rise. The service sector, and tourism in particular, also contribute significantly to the economy. Although some international trade groups classify Kenya as part of the Greater Horn of Africa, the country is a member of the East African Community trade grouping. The African continent is Kenya’s most important export market, followed by the European Union.
