Africa Fandex

Combining the accessible die-cut Fandex format, dozens and dozens of full-color illustrations, and the cultural and natural marvels of 54 diverse countries, Africa is a wonder-filled addition to the series that has over 3.2 million copies in print. Here is the Asante people's Golden Stool—an object so sacred that, when the British demanded it in 1896, the Asante handed over their chief instead. The Great Man-Made River, one of the world's most ambitious engineering projects to green the desert of Libya. Ethiopia's ancient Solomonic Dynasty, the Zamrock pop music of Zambia, and the real Voodoo. Each card includes vital stats (capital, currency, flag, and languages) and a map on the back.
