Uganda, country in east-central Africa. About the size of Great Britain, Uganda is populated by dozens of ethnic groups. The English language and Christianity help unite these diverse peoples, who come together in the cosmopolitan capital of Kampala, a verdant city whose plan includes dozens of parks and public gardens and a scenic promenade along the shore of Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest freshwater lake. The Swahili language unites the country with its East African neighbors Kenya and Tanzania
Uganda is a fairy-tale. You climb up a railway instead of a beanstalk, and at the end there is a wonderful new word,” wrote Sir Winston Churchill, who visited the country during its years under British rule and who called it “the pearl of Africa.” Indeed, Uganda embraces many ecosystems, from the tall volcanic mountains of the eastern and western frontiers to the densely forested swamps of the Albert Nile River and the rainforests of the country’s central plateau. The land is richly fertile, and Ugandan coffee has become both a mainstay of the agricultural economy and a favorite of connoisseurs around the world.
The reason why Uganda was called the pearl of Africa comes from Winston Churchill in his popularized book which he wrote down in the 1908”My African Journey’. Uganda is called the Pearl of Africa when Winston talked of the magnificence, color, life, birds, reptiles, insects, beasts, mammals, and vegetation.
