Jen,

If Africa is Africa, then basically once you have researched one country you have mastered them all, right? Wrong! Africa is a region, not a country. There are many variances from one country to another that need to be understood. Family life, healthcare practices and religious beliefs are different in Egypt and Chad as in Morocco or South Africa. To find the answer to your questions first you need to know what specific country or region you are investigating.
