Central African Republic

The Central African Republic is a landlocked country in Central Africa. It is bordered by Chad in the north, Sudan in the northeast, South Sudan in the east, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of the Congo in the south and Cameroon in the west. The CAR covers a land area of about 620,000 square kilometres and had an estimated population of about 4.4 million as of 2008. Most of the CAR consists of Sudano-Guinean savannas, but the country also includes a Sahelo-Sudanian zone in the north and an equatorial forest zone in the south. Two-thirds of the country is within the Ubangi River basin, while the remaining third lies in the basin of the Chari, which flows into Lake Chad. What is today Central African Republic has been inhabited for millennia but the country's current borders were established by France which ruled the country as a colony starting in the late 19th century. After independence from France in 1960 Central African Republic was ruled by a series of autocratic leaders and by the 1990s calls for democracy led to the first multi-party democratic elections in 1993.
