Eritrea

Driving Directions Eritrea

ERITREA, formerly an autonomous province of Ethiopia, gained independence in May 1993 following a long, armed struggle against Ethiopia, which had been in control since 1945. Bounded by Djibouti, Sudan, and Ethiopia, Eritrea has acquired Ethiopia’s entire coastline along the Red Sea. The small Eritrean port of Aseb, in the southeast corner of the country, has been designated a free port guaranteeing the right of access to the now landlocked Ethiopia. Eritrea has a coastal plain rising to a belt of plateaux and mountains in the center and north. West of the mountains, the ground descends to form a region of undulating plains.

Ghana

Driving Directions Ghana

GHANA is located on the southern coast of West Africa between Cote d’Ivoire and Togo. In 1957, as the former British Gold Coast, it became the first black African state to achieve independence from European colo­nial rule.

The country has palm-fringed beaches of white sand along the Gulf of Guinea, and where the great River Volta meets the sea, there are peaceful blue lagoons. A coastal, grassy plain gives way to a dense jungle in the southwest and savannah country and woodland in the interior and north.

There is a range of modest-sized mountains (up to 900 meters or 2,950 feet) along the eastern border with Togo. The landscape becomes harsh and barren near the border with Burkina Faso in the far north. Forested areas have been greatly reduced and cleared during the 20th century, although some efforts were made to halt this process.
