Uganda, a landlocked East African nation bordering Kenya, South Sudan, DRC, Rwanda, and Tanzania, offers diverse landscapes including volcanic hills, mountains, and a significant portion of Lake Victoria. With a population of over 49 million, and Kampala as its capital, Uganda boasts a rich history shaped by Bantu and Nilotic kingdoms, Arab traders, and British colonial rule, gaining independence in 1962. While facing challenges with governance and human rights, Uganda has made strides in education and health, and its thriving biodiversity fuels a growing tourism sector.
