Africa News: Cultures Of Central Africa


Central Africa: The 9 Central African Countries, Their Language, Capitals And Population


Culture Of Central Africa

Historically, the region has experienced a lot of movement from within and outside. Consequently, it has experienced a lot of intermingling of different cultures. A good example of such an intermingling was during the Bantu migration into the region. Similar cultural activities that exist are seen in activities such as music, adornment of the body, marriage rituals, initiation, art, and dance.

In terms of size, the two major ethnic groups in Central Africa are the Mongo and the Luba peoples. Both of these communities are estimated to have members numbering between 10 and 15 million. The Kongo and the Kanuri also have significant estimates of around 10 million members. Other communities with considerable sizes include the Sara, Gbaya, Zande, and the Banda. Interestingly, all of these communities live within the Chad Basin and the Sub-Equatorial Basin.
