Comprehension

The Dark Continent

Until the latter half of the nineteenth century, the Europeans knew little about the interior of Africa. By then much had been learnt about America, Asia and Australia. Because the Europeans knew little about Africa then this was the chief reason why Stanley, the British explorer, called Africa, the Dark Continent.

Stanley explored the Congo Basin. The Stanley falls on this river is called after his name. Most of the inhabitants of Africa are black in complexion and perhaps this was the second reason the words Dark continent were applied to Africa.

One may ask why the inland part of Africa was unknown until about one hundred years ago. Many are of the opinion that this was because the natives of Africa were not friendly towards Europeans until then, Arab slave raiders had been enslaving Africans. This made many Negroes look upon all white people as slave dealers. But we must not for forget the difficulties in exploring Africa. The Sahara Desert, the rapids on rivers and the thick forests made travelling very difficult. The damp, heat, mosquitoes and tse-tse flies cause illness to European explorers.
