Horn of Africa - Profile
The Horn of Africa refers to the geographical region falling within that horn-shaped part of Africa that
protrudes into the Indian Ocean, from the continent's land mass in northeastern Africa. As an area without
obvious physical or political boundaries, the Horn is somewhat difficult to define precisely. By its strictest
definition, it includes the countries of Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti, The Sudan and the northeastern region
of Kenya. The Horn has been a
contentious area of the world whose recent history has been constantly marred by wars, revolutions,
coups d'état and territorial dispute. Much of this region's history involves understanding the internal
politics of Somalia and Ethiopia, the two countries that are most central to the disputes in that area.
