SQ3R Geography

East Africa has many different geographical features. East Africa has many highlands as well plains, but East Africa is mainly known for the Great Rift Valley. Most of the East African population lives on highlands, as more vegetation grows there. Mt. Kilimanjaro is 5,895 meters, and stands in Kenya. There are many elephants, giraffes, lions, zebras, and flamingos. To protect wild life in East Africa, a national park was established in Tanzania. Africa's largest lake, Lake Victoria, is also in East Africa. The highlands are very wet and rainy, and the plains are very dry.
