History

The story of Africa is the oldest and most event-filled chronicle of human activity on the planet. This course traces the story of the sub-Saharan region from the earliest evidence of human habitation to the latest challenges facing African nations in the 21st century. Africa’s people, places, languages, and customs will come vividly to life, and you will be able to follow events in present-day Africa in their deep historical context.
