AFRICA! Or more specifically languages spoken in Africa.

I wanted to learn more about the cultures and languages spoken in such a large and diverse country and how those different languages are influenced by the geography of the area.  Each week I want to focus on a different area or country within Africa and analyze the languages the citizens speak and how those languages came to that area.  Through this exploration I hope to better understand and appreciate the diversity that exists in Africa and also to gain a deeper understanding of the continent.  I know this will be a lot of work but I am really excited to learn so wish me luck and here we go!
