Tanzania
With over 58 million inhabitants, Tanzania is the fifth largest country in Africa by population. Although one of the continent's most stable democracies, Tanzania faces major challenges in other areas. Lack of education keeps people in poverty, and AIDS has orphaned untold numbers of children here as well.
