East Africa

[Alluring]

Ever notice Ugandans, Kenyans, etc. Always rep East Africa, as if they are a separate race from their brothers on the west, central,or south?

Eastern African Community? Is that what you were talking about?

Before they do that, we need Northeastern Kenya back.

I think it has something to do with the language; these nations you mentioned all speak Swahili and have somewhat close contact with other eastern Africans within their borders, mostly Muslims of different tradition that they may identify with.

Well, I could be wrong, but that's my .02 cents on the subject.

Jr,

They think they are two different races. In connection with appearance, they try so hard to fit in with Ethiopians or Somalis.

[cabdallah252]

its the bantu connection


bantu is an ethnic group like somalis but far more laandheer, their qabiil stretches from nigeria to kenya to south africa

Cabdallah, can we borrow some of their laan?

[muslim-man]

kenya,tzs and ug pple trying to fit in with the ethiopians?????

On the contrary, these pple think they are superior to the starving ethiopians.

Kenya ug and tz were long ruled from the same house and were called the east african community during the colonial era. they even used to have same currency called east afrikan shilling untill the slave master walked home and gave them Uhuru.
