Central Africa

Central Africa, region of Africa that straddles the Equator and is drained largely by the Congo River system.

It comprises, according to common definitions.

the Republic of the Congo (Brazzaville), the Central African Republic.

and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Kinshasa);

Gabon is usually included along with the Central African Republic because of their common historical ties.

both of these countries having once been part of French Equatorial Africa.

Rwanda and Burundi, although they are located east of the East African Rift System.

which forms the eastern divide of the Congo basin.

are also often considered part of the region because of their long administrative connections with the former Belgian Congo (now Congo [Kinshasa]).

The island republic of São Tomé and Príncipe, off the Atlantic coast of Gabon, is also included in the region.

The landscapes of Central Africa are most often wide plateaus

which are smooth in the central part and etched at the periphery.

The interior basin of the Congo River is joined to the Atlantic Ocean.

by a narrow neck traversing ridges parallel to the coast. The basin contains some marshlands in the region where the Congo.

Ubangi, Likouala, and Sangha rivers converge .

and where Lakes Mai-Ndombe and Tumba are found. Its major part.

however, consists of drier surfaces (low plateaus or alluvial terraces).

Higher plateaus, which extend through older sedimentary strata around the centre of the Congo basin, reach an elevation of 2,600 to 3,000 feet.

(790 to 900 metres) north of Brazzaville

and exceed 3,000 feet near the Angolan border to the south.

In the north a low divide (2,000–2,300 feet [610–700 metres]) separates the Congo River and its tributaries from the Chad basin.

The landscape beyond the divide descends by steps toward Lake Chad. Southwest and south of the Chaillu Massif .

(3,000–3,300 feet [900–1,005 metres]) in Gabon and Congo (Brazzaville) are ridges, traversed through deep.

and narrow gorges by the Kouilou and Congo.

East of this complex the Congo River has eroded a broad basin.

known as Malebo Pool, into the upper sedimentary strata before cutting rapids farther downstream.
