The continent often referred to as 'the Dark Continent' is Africa. This term historically arose in the context of European exploration and colonization, reflecting the continent's perceived lack of knowledge and understanding among Westerners. Africa is incredibly diverse in terms of cultures, languages, and ecosystems, with vast resources and intensive histories. Despite its rich heritage, misinterpretations and negative stereotypes have plagued its representation. Today, efforts to redefine this narrative emphasize Africa's contributions to global civilization, emphasizing its rich cultures and histories.
