Summary
Since 1960, many African countries have been devastated by civil wars. Today, it is estimated that between 20 and 25 percent of Africa's 885 million people are affected, either directly or indirectly, by ongoing conflict. The widespread unrest has been a major reason the people of Africa have been unable to fully reach their potential.
