Kenya - Masaai (Masai) general.

Due to the lack of written sources, (In Africa was lack of writing sources, people usually used their speech so they told stories from generation to generation), trying to pinpoint the origins of any one tribe is difficult. Many historians feel that the Masai have existed as a people for as long as 3000 years. The Masai - also spelled as Maasai - currently live in a large corridor of land between Kenya and Tanzania. Masai was not a biggest tribe in kenya though they were the most powerful tribe in the country before, during and after 19th century. During 1885-1886 Germans came to Kenya by ships. There were some Arabs who were selling and buying things there. During the East African Protectorate (1895-1920) Britsh made a law that all good higlands and midlands will go to European people and Native people can't be settled there. The funny thing is that settles were not actually British people but people from South Africa.

Eyes of Africa

Introduction words.
In this blog I want to write about Kenya, country located in Africa where I saw a lot of different people and different fates. Being in Kenya affected my life even though I was young and my mind wasn't busy with things such as economy, wealth, difference in races, money, whatever. I was thinking about girrafes and elephants. Africa, Kenya in particular wasn't what I imagined. It surprised me a lot. On the one side I saw a country that is going to have a better future, on the other side I saw a lot of slums with poor people who are ready to kill you for couple of bucks. I will write about Maasai tribe, that I saw by myself, also I will talk about perspectives of Kenya and preservation of wildlife.
