Question

HI friends WHY AFRICA IS KNOWN AS DARK Continent? ​

Answer 1

it is known as dark continent as no sun rays reaches the soil because of the canopy formed by the tress.....

Answer 2

Africa is home to some of the most amazing scenery and natural beauty on the planet. It is the continent where modern humans originated, and has been home to some of history’s great empires. However, despite all Africa has to offer, for centuries it has carried a reputation as a poor, backward, dangerous place, and perhaps nothing exemplifies this more than its outdated nickname, the “Dark Continent.”
