Where in Africa is Kenya
Kenya is in Eastern
Africa, bordering the Indian Ocean, between Somalia and Tanzania. Kenya has
five border countries in all, Ethiopia, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania, and Uganda.
The population is heavily concentrated in the west along the shore of LakeVictoria; other areas of high density include the capital of Nairobi, and in
the southeast along the Indian Ocean coast.
Kenya is the
economic, financial, and transport hub of East Africa. The Kenyan Highlands
comprise one of the most successful agricultural production regions in Africa;
glaciers are found on Mount Kenya, Africa's second highest peak; unique
physiography supports abundant and varied wildlife of scientific and economic
value; Lake Victoria, the world's largest tropical lake and the second largest
freshwater lake is shared among three countries: Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
Tourism also holds a
significant place in Kenya’s economy. Tourism
in Kenya is the second-largest source of foreign exchange revenue following
agriculture. The total tourism arrivals for business and pleasure through air
flights, cruise ships, and border travels for the financial year 2017 - 2018
grew by 6.8% to almost 1.5 million visitors compared to 1.4 million visitors for
the financial year 2016 - 2017.

chances of a hurricane are highest during these months. Hurricanes
are gigantic weather systems using convection, the movement of hot and cold
air, to create dangerous storms. They are rotating heat engines powered by the
