Central African Republic

verified-icon
The Heart of Africa.
The Central African Republic is a landlocked country in Central Africa with a history marked by political instability, armed conflict, and ethnic tensions. It gained independence from France in 1960 but has since experienced multiple coups, with frequent changes of government. The country has been plagued by violence between various rebel groups, government forces, and international peacekeeping troops. This has resulted in widespread human rights abuses, displacement of populations, and a humanitarian crisis. The Central African Republic is rich in natural resources, including diamonds, gold, and uranium, but ongoing conflict and corruption have hindered economic development. Despite efforts to establish peace and stability, the country continues to face challenges in achieving lasting peace and improving the well-being of its citizens.
