Uganda

Uganda combines equatorial greenery with open savanna in a way that reflects its position within the East African Great Lakes region. Lake Victoria shapes much of the south, and the Victoria Nile flows from the lake at Jinja before continuing north. To the west, the Rwenzori Mountains rise along the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo, while Murchison Falls National Park centres on a dramatic stretch of the Nile. Uganda became independent from British rule in 1962, yet older traditions remain visible at the Kasubi Tombs, the royal burial grounds of Buganda.
