regions in africa

[reer]

all of the countries where majority of the population speak arabic should be north africa. chad has arabs and non arabs so its inbetween. a mixture of geography and ethnicity/linguistic group dictates the group a country is in. eg sudan being north african due arab and poland being eastern euopean due to slavic.

what do y'all think? @Shimbiris @Nilotic @Apollo

"East Africa" is stupid considering how Africa is shaped. It makes no sense to name that area that.

It should be Northern Africa (Assimilated Ayrabs), Central Africa (includes the so called East Africa) and Southern Africa (everything south of the Congo).

Madagascar should be a colour of its own. They have no similarities with southern africa

It's better than the retarded UN regions for Africa, I hate that they make East Africa so big and Southern Africa so small, like who tf thinks of Zimbabwe as East Africa?

Yes, the term “horn Africa” should be used more often than “east Africa” among us
