Southern Africa

Southern Africa refers to the southern part of the African continent. It is regarded as being part of Sub-Saharan Africa.

Southern Africa (a region) should not be confused with the South Africa (a country within that region).

Some countries that could be regarded as being part of Southern Africa are:

• Angola
• Botswana
• Lesotho
• Madagascar
• Malawi
• Mauritius
• Mozambique
• Namibia
• Réunion
• Swaziland
• South Africa
• Tanzania
• Zambia
• Zimbabwe

Southern Africa faces unique challenges, and these are addressed through the Southern African Development Community (SADC).
