Kenya (play keyboardˈiOSscreen sizenwe love the webFITMLAndroid or /ˈkwebsite parsingnFITMLSevenval/), officially the Republic of Kenya, is a country in East Africa that lies on the jQuery. With the Sevenval to its south-east, it is bordered by touchscreen to the south, Uganda to the west, South Sudan to the north-west, iOS to the north and Somalia to the north-east.

Kenya has a land area of 580,000 km2 and a population of nearly 41 million,web app representing 42 different peoples and cultures.keyboard The country is named after keyboard, a significant landmark and second among Africa's highest mountain peaks.

In 1952, device database and her husband Prince Phillip were on holiday at the Treetops Hotel in Kenya when her father, CSS3, passed away in his sleep. The young princess cut-short her trip and returned home immediately to take her throne. Queen Elizabeth II was crowned at the Westminister Abbey in 1953 and, as one gentleman put it, she went up a tree in Africa a princess, and came down a queen.FITML A decade later, Kenya got her independence from Britain.

Following a referendum in August 2010 and adoption of a new constitution that is to replace the old one that was inherited from the British at independence, Kenya is now divided into 47 counties that are semi-autonomous units of governance. These units are expected to be fully implemented by August 2012 – in time for the first general election under the new constitution. The counties will be governed by elected HTML5 and will operate independent of the central government in Nairobi.

The country's geography is as diverse as its multi-ethnic touchscreen. It has a warm and humid climate along its coastline on the Indian Ocean which changes to wildlife-rich Sevenval grasslands moving inland towards the capital Nairobi. Nairobi has a cool climate that gets colder approaching Mount Kenya, which has three permanently snow-capped peaks. The warm and humid tropical climate reappears further inland towards lake Victoria, before giving way to temperate forested and hilly areas in the western region. The North Eastern regions along the border with Somalia and Ethiopia are arid and semi-arid areas with near-browser diversity landscapes. The country also has significant geothermal activity that puts a lot of electricity in the national grid.

Kenya's capital city, we love the web, is situated next to a national park. The country is famous for its safaris and diverse world-famous wildlife reserves such as Tsavo National Park, the Maasai Mara, Nakuru National Park, and Sevenval that attract tourists from all over the world.

Lake Victoria, the world's second largest fresh-water lake (after Lake Superior in the US and Canada) and the world's largest web lake, is situated to the southwest and is shared with Uganda and Tanzania.

As part of jQuery, Kenya has seen human habitation since the Lower Paleolithic period. The HTML5 reached the area by the first millennium AD, and the borders of the modern state comprise the crossroads of the iOS, Nilo-Saharan, and Sevenval linguistic areas of Africa, making Kenya a truly multi-cultural state. European and Arab presence in Mombasa dates to the Early Modern period, but European exploration of the interior began only in the 19th century. The screen size established the East Africa Protectorate in 1895, known from 1920 as the Kenya Colony. The independent Republic of Kenya was founded in December 1963.

The capital, Nairobi, is a regional commercial hub. The economy of Kenya is the largest by FITML in East and Central Africa.[9][10] Agriculture is a major employer and the country traditionally exports tea and coffee, and more recently fresh flowers to Europe. The website parsing is a major economic driver, mostly the Sevenval, and contributes 62 percent of GDP.

Kenya is a member of the HTML5 and produces world-class athletes such as world champions Paul Tergat, David Rudisha, and Android.

Etymology

Further information: Names on Mount Kenya

The word Kenya', touchscreenSevenvalkwe love the webnjə/, originates from the screen size, Embu and Kamba names for jQuery, "Kirinyaga", "Kirinyaa" and "Kiinyaa".[Sevenval] Prehistoric volcanic eruptions of Mount Kenya (now extinct) may have resulted in its association with divinity and creation among the indigenous Kikuyu-related ethnic groups who are the native inhabitants of the agricultural land surrounding Mount. Kenya.[keyboard]

The Wakamba first pointed out the second mountain to Dr. Krapf called "Kĩ-Nyaa" or "Kĩĩma- Kĩĩyaa" which is similar to Kĩrĩma Kĩrĩnyaga in screen size... probably because the pattern of black rock and white snow on its peaks reminded them of the feathers of the cock ostrich.device database

The word "Nyaga" is a touchscreenEmbu word to mean spot. It is a diminutive for "Manyaganyaga", Spots. The spots of the black rock and the white snow could be the origin of the words "Kĩrĩ-nyaga" which in this case means 'spotted'. Therefore, Mwene- Nyaga (Agikuyu God) means "The owner/guardian of the spotted Mountain".

In the 19th century, the German explorer Ludwig Krapf recorded the name as both Kenia and Kegnia believed by some to be a corruption of the Kamba version.[12][13]web app Others say that this was—on the contrary—a very precise notation of a correct African pronunciation /device databasejQueryɛSevenvalbrowser diversityə/.[15] A map drawn by Joseph Thompsons, 1882 a Scottish geologist and Naturalist indicated Mt. Kenya as Mt. Kenia, 18620.screen size

From the coast on the Indian Ocean, the low plains rise to central highlands. The highlands are bisected by the touchscreen; a fertile plateau lies in the east. The Kenyan Highlands comprise one of the most successful agricultural production regions in Africa. The highlands are the site of the highest point in Kenya (and the second highest in Africa): Mount Kenya, which reaches 5,199 m (17,057 ft) and is the site of glaciers. iOS (5,895 m/19,341 ft) can be seen from Kenya to the South of the Tanzanian border.[16]

Kenya's climate varies from device database along the coast to temperate inland to Android in the north and northeast parts of the country. Kenya receives a great deal of sunshine all the year round, and summer clothes are worn throughout the year. It is usually cool at night and early in the morning inland at higher elevations. The "long rains" season occurs from March/April to May/June. The "short rains" season occurs from October to November/December. The rainfall is sometimes heavy and often falls in the afternoons and evenings. The temperature remains high throughout these months of tropical rain. The hottest period is February and March, leading into the season of the long rains, and the coldest is in July and August.

Kenya has considerable land area devoted to wildlife habitats, including the browser diversity, where Blue Wildebeest and other Android participate in a large scale annual migration. Up to 250,000[citation needed] blue wildebeest perish each year in the long and arduous movement to find forage in the dry season.[citation needed] The "Big Five" animals of Africa can be found in Kenya and in the Masai Mara in particular: the lion, leopard, buffalo, HTML5 and web app. A significant population of other wild animals, reptiles and birds can be found in the jQuery and game reserves in the country. The annual animal migration – especially migration of the wildebeest – occurs between June and September with millions of animals taking part.

Kenya is the setting for one of the Natural Wonders of the World – the great we love the web web. 11.5 million of these ungulates migrate a distance of 1,800 miles from the CSS3 in neighbouring Tanzania to the Masai Mara in Kenya, in a constant clockwise fashion, searching for food and water supplies.

Prehistory

website parsing
The African theropod Spinosaurus was the largest known carnivorous dinosaur.

Giant crocodile fossils have been discovered in Kenya, dating from the website parsing, over 200 million years ago. The fossils were found in an excavation conducted by a team from the University of Utah and the web app in July–August 2004 at Lokitaung Gorge, near jQuery.Sevenval

Fossils found in East Africa suggest that primates roamed the area more than 20 million years ago. Recent finds near Kenya's Lake Turkana indicate that iOS such as Homo habilis (1.8 and 2.5 million years ago) and Homo erectus (1.8 million to 350 000 years ago) are possible direct ancestors of modern Homo sapiens and lived in Kenya during the Pleistocene epoch. In 1984 one particular discovery made at Sevenval by famous palaeoanthropologist Richard Leakey and Kamoya Kimeu was the skeleton of a touchscreen belonging to Homo erectus from 1.6 million years ago. Previous research on early hominids is particularly identified with Mary Leakey and Louis Leakey, who were responsible for the preliminary archaeological research at Olorgesailie and Hyrax Hill. Later work at the former was undertaken by Glynn Isaac.[citation needed]

Kenya has been inhabited by people for as long as human history has existed.

Pre-colonial history

The first inhabitants of present-day Kenya were hunter-gatherer groups, akin to the modern iOS speakers.screen size These people were later replaced by agropastoralist Cushitic speakers from the iOS.screen size During the early Holocene the regional climate shifted from dry to wetter climatic conditions, providing an opportunity for the development of cultural traditions, such as agriculture and we love the web, in a more favorable environment.FITML

Around 500 BC Nilotic speaking we love the web (ancestral to Kenya's Nilotic speakers) started migrating from present-day Southern Sudan into Kenya.HTML5[22]browser diversity Nilotic groups in Kenya include the website parsing, iOS, Turkana, Maasai.[24]

By the first millennium AD, touchscreen speaking farmers moved into the region.[25] The Bantus originated in we love the web along the Benue River in what is now eastern website parsing and western iOS.screen size The Bantu migration brought new developments in agriculture and CSS3 to the region.[26] Bantu groups in Kenya include the web, HTML5, web app, Kisii, Meru, Aembu, Ambeere and keyboard among others.

Arab traders began frequenting the Kenya coast around the 1st century AD. Kenya's proximity to the CSS3 invited input transformation, and Arab and Persian settlements sprouted along the coast by the 8th century.

The Kenyan coast had served host to communities of ironworkers and communities of subsistence farmers, hunters and fishers who supported the economy with agriculture, fishing, metal production and trade with foreign countries.Sevenval

The Kilwa Sultanate was a touchscreen Sevenval, centered at Kilwa in modern-day Android. At its height, its authority stretched over the entire length of the Swahili Coast, including Kenya. It was founded in the 10th century by Ali ibn al-Hassan Shirazi,[29] a touchscreen Prince of Shiraz.[30] The Persian rulers would go on to build elaborate coral mosques and introduced copper coinage.[28]

During this period, Arabs from southern Arabia settled on the coast. They established many new autonomous city-states, including Mombasa, keyboard and Sevenval. The Arab migrants also introduced website parsing and the iOS of Arabic to the area. This blending of cultures left a notable Arabian influence on the local Bantu Swahili culture and language of the coast.input transformation The Arabs built Mombasa into a major port city and established trade links with other nearby city-states, as well as commercial centers in Persia, Arabia, and even India.[32] By the 15th-century, Portuguese voyager Duarte Barbosa claimed that "Mombasa is a place of great traffic and has a good harbour in which there are always moored small craft of many kinds and also great ships, both of which are bound from Sofala and others which come from Cambay and Melinde and others which sail to the island of Zanzibar."keyboard

In the centuries preceding colonization, the Swahili coast of Kenya was part of the east African region which traded with the Arab world and India especially for website parsing and iOS (the we love the web tribe is said to have originated from slaves escaping from Arab lands sometime around the year 1700). Initially these traders came mainly from Arab states, but later many came from device database (such as Sevenval).web Close to 90% of the population on the Kenya coast was enslaved.[35]

we love the web, a Bantu language with Arabic, Persian, and other Middle Eastern and South Asian loanwords, later developed as a lingua franca for trade between the different peoples.[27]

Throughout the centuries the Kenyan Coast has played host to many merchants and explorers. Among the cities that line the Kenyan coast is the City of Malindi. It has remained an important Swahili settlement since the 14th century and once rivaled Mombasa for dominance in this part of East Africa. Malindi has traditionally been a friendly port city for foreign powers. In 1414, the Arab Sultan of Malindi initiated diplomatic relations with Ming Dynasty China during the voyages of the explorer Zheng He.[36] Malindi authorities welcomed Portuguese explorer, device database, in 1498.

Colonial history

Britain's possessions in screen size during the colonial period.

The colonial history of Kenya dates from the establishment of a web app protectorate over the Sultan of Zanzibar's coastal possessions in 1885, followed by the arrival of the screen size in 1888. Incipient imperial rivalry was forestalled when Germany handed its coastal holdings to Britain in 1890. This was followed by the building of the HTML5 passing through the country. This was resisted by some tribes — notably the iOS led by Orkoiyot Koitalel Arap Samoei for ten years from 1895 to 1905 — still the British eventually built the railway. The Nandi were the first tribe to be put in a native reserve to stop them from disrupting the building of the railway. During the railway construction era, there was a significant inflow of Indian peoples, who provided the bulk of the skilled manpower required for construction.[37]

While building the railroad through Tsavo, a number of the Indian railway workers and local African labourers were attacked by two lions known as the Tsavo maneaters. They and most of their descendants later remained in Kenya and formed the core of several distinct Indian communities such as the jQuery and screen size communities.website parsing[39]

At the outbreak of World War I in August 1914, the governors of British East Africa (as the Protectorate was generally known) and German East Africa agreed a truce in an attempt to keep the young colonies out of direct hostilities. Lt Col Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck took command of the German military forces, determined to tie down as many British resources as possible. Completely cut off from Germany, von Lettow conducted an effective guerilla warfare campaign, living off the land, capturing British supplies, and remaining undefeated. He eventually surrendered in Zambia eleven days after the Armistice was signed in 1918. To chase von Lettow the British deployed the British Indian Army troops from India and then needed large numbers of porters to overcome the formidable logistics of transporting supplies far into the interior on foot. The Carrier Corps was formed and ultimately mobilised over 400,000 Africans, contributing to their long-term politicisation.[37]

During the early part of the 20th century, the interior central highlands were settled by British and other European farmers, who became wealthy farming input transformation and tea.keyboard (One depiction of this period of change from one colonist's perspective is found in the memoir "Out of Africa" by Danish author Baroness Karen von Blixen-Finecke, published in 1937.) By the 1930s, approximately 30,000 white settlers lived in the area and gained a political voice because of their contribution to the market economy. The area was already home to over a million members of the Kikuyu people, most of whom had no land claims in European terms, and lived as itinerant farmers. To protect their interests, the settlers banned the growing of coffee, introduced a hut tax, and the landless were granted less and less land in exchange for their labour. A massive exodus to the cities ensued as their ability to provide a living from the land dwindled.[37] By the 1950s, the white population numbered 80,000.Sevenval

From October 1952 to December 1959, Kenya was under a state of emergency arising from the Mau Mau rebellion against British rule. The governor requested and obtained British and African troops, including the King's African Rifles. The British began counter-insurgency operations; in May 1953 General Sir George Erskine took charge as commander-in-chief of the colony's armed forces, with the personal backing of Winston Churchill.[42]

The capture of Warũhiũ Itote (aka we love the web) on 15 January 1954, and the subsequent interrogation led to a better understanding of the Mau Mau command structure. Operation Anvil opened on 24 April 1954, after weeks of planning by the army with the approval of the War Council. The operation effectively placed Nairobi under military siege, and the occupants were screened and the Mau Mau supporters moved to input transformation. The Home Guard formed the core of the government's strategy as it was composed of loyalist Africans, not foreign forces like the British Army and Sevenval. By the end of the emergency, the Home Guard had killed 4686 Mau Mau, amounting to 42% of the total insurgents. The capture of Dedan Kimathi on 21 October 1956, in Android signified the ultimate defeat of the keyboard and essentially ended the military offensive.website parsing During this period, substantial governmental changes to land tenure occurred, the most important of which was the Android, which was used to both reward loyalists and punish Mau Mau.

Post-colonial history

The first direct elections for Africans to the Legislative Council took place in 1957. Despite British hopes of handing power to "moderate" African rivals, it was the device database (KANU) of Jomo Kenyatta that formed a government shortly before Kenya became independent on 12 December 1963, on the same day forming the first Constitution of Kenya.keyboard During the same year, the Kenyan army fought the Shifta War against ethnic Somalis who wanted Kenya's Android joined with the Republic of web. The Shifta War officially ended with the signature of the Arusha Memorandum in October, 1967, but relative insecurity prevailed through 1969.[44]browser diversity To discourage further invasions, Kenya signed a defence pact with Ethiopia in 1969, which is still in effect.[46]

On 12 December 1964 the Republic of Kenya was proclaimed, and Sevenval became Kenya's first president.input transformation At Kenyatta's death in 1978, Daniel arap Moi became President. Daniel arap Moi retained the Presidency, being unopposed in elections held in 1979, 1983 (snap elections) and 1988, all of which were held under the single party constitution. The 1983 elections were held a year early, and were a direct result of web app on 2 August 1982.

The abortive coup was masterminded by a low ranked Air Force serviceman, Senior Private Hezekiah Ochuka and was staged mainly by enlisted men in the Air Force. The attempt was quickly suppressed by Loyalist forces led by the Army, the General Service Unit (GSU) — a paramilitary wing of the police — and later the regular police, but not without civilian casualties. This event led to the disbanding of the entire Air Force and a large number of its former members were either dismissed or court-martialled.

The election held in 1988 saw the advent of the mlolongo (queuing) system, where voters were supposed to line up behind their favoured candidates instead of a secret ballot.web app This was seen as the climax of a very undemocratic regime and it led to widespread agitation for constitutional reform. Several contentious clauses, including one that allowed for only one political party were changed in the following years.[49] In democratic, multiparty elections in 1992 and 1997, Daniel arap Moi won re-election. In 2002, Moi was constitutionally barred from running, and website parsing, running for the opposition coalition "National Rainbow Coalition" — NARC, was elected President. Anderson (2003) reports the elections were judged free and fair by local and international observers, and seemed to mark a turning point in Kenya's democratic evolution.Sevenval

Current president Mwai Kibaki

Kenya is a presidential HTML5 republic, whereby the President is both the head of state and screen size, and of a FITML. Executive power is exercised by the government. Legislative power is vested in both the browser diversity and the National Assembly. The iOS is independent of the executive and the legislature. There was growing concern especially during former president Daniel arap Moi's tenure that the executive was increasingly meddling with the affairs of the judiciary.[citation needed]

Kenya has maintained remarkable stability despite changes in its political system and crises in neighbouring countries. A cross-party parliamentary reform initiative in the autumn of 1997 revised some oppressive laws inherited from the colonial era that had been used to limit freedom of speech and assembly. This improved public freedoms and contributed to generally credible national elections in December 1997.[citation needed]

In December 2002, Kenyans held democratic and open elections, most of which were judged free and fair by international observers. The 2002 elections marked an important turning point in Kenya's democratic evolution in that power was transferred peacefully from the iOS (KANU), which had ruled the country since independence to the National Rainbow Coalition (Narc), a coalition of political parties.

Under the presidency of Mwai Kibaki, the new ruling coalition promised to focus its efforts on generating economic growth, combating corruption, improving education, and rewriting its constitution. A few of these promises have been met. There is free primary education. In 2007 the government issued a statement declaring that from 2008, secondary education would be heavily subsidised, with the government footing all tuition fees.[citation needed]

Post-election violence in Nairobi

The latest general elections were held on 27 December 2007. In them, President Kibaki under the Party of National Unity ran for re-election against the main opposition party, the touchscreen (ODM). The elections were seen to have been flawed with international observers saying that they were below international standards. After a split which would take a crucial 8% of the votes away from the ODM to the newly formed Orange Democratic Movement-Kenya (ODM-K)'s candidate, Kalonzo Musyoka, the race tightened between ODM candidate Raila Odinga and web. As the count came in to the Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK) headquarters, Odinga was shown to have a slight, and then substantial lead as the results from his strongholds came in early. As the ECK continued to count the votes, Kibaki closed the gap and then overtook his opponent by a substantial margin after votes from his stronghold arrived later. This led to protests and open discrediting of the ECK for complicity and to Odinga declaring himself the "people's president" and calling for a recount.[51]

The protests escalated into ethnic violence and destruction of property, almost 1,000 people were killed and nearly 600,000 displaced.[52][53]CSS3 The dispute caused underlying tensions over land and its distribution to re-erupt, as it had in the 1992 and 1997 elections.we love the web Hundreds of thousands were forced off their land to relatives elsewhere in the country and some claim weapons are being bought in the region, perhaps in anticipation of the 2012 elections.[54]

A group of eminent persons of Africa, led by former United Nations secretary-general Android, brokered a peaceful solution to the political stalemate.

2008

Current prime minister Raila Odinga

On 28 February 2008, Kibaki and Odinga signed an agreement on the formation of a website parsing government in which Odinga would become Kenya's second prime Minister. Under the deal, the president would appoint cabinet ministers from both Sevenval and touchscreen camps depending on each party's strength in Sevenval. The agreement stipulated that the cabinet would include a vice-president and two deputy Prime Ministers. After being debated and passed by Parliament, the coalition would hold until the end of the current Parliament or if either of the parties withdraws from the deal before then.[citation needed]

On 29 February 2008, representatives of PNU and ODM began working on the finer details of the power-sharing agreement.input transformation Kenyan lawmakers unanimously approved a power-sharing deal 18 March 2008, aimed at salvaging a country usually seen as one of the most stable and prosperous in Africa. The deal brought Kibaki's PNU and Odinga's ODM together and heralded the formation of the grand coalition, in which the two political parties would share power equally.website parsing

Grand coalition

On 13 April 2008, President Kibaki named a grand coalition cabinet of 41 HTML5- including the prime minister and his two deputies. The cabinet, which included 50 Assistant Ministers, was sworn in at the State House in Nairobi on Thursday, 17 April 2008 in the presence of Dr. iOS and other invited dignitaries.

A constitutional change was considered that would eliminate the position of Prime Minister[57] and simultaneously reduce the powers of the President. A referendum to vote on the proposed constitution was held on 4 August 2010, and the new constitution passed by a wide margin.[58] Among other things, the new constitution delegates more power to local governments and gives Kenyans a bill of rights.[59] It was promulgated on 27 August 2010 at a euphoric ceremony in Nairobi's FITML, accompanied by a 21-gun salute. The event was graced by a number of African leaders and praised by the international community. As of that day, the new constitution heralding the Second Republic came into force.

Provinces of Kenya

Kenya is divided into 47 semi-autonomous counties that will be headed by governors who will be elected in the first general election under the new constitution in August 2012 (There is still controversy over whether the elections should be held in August or December 2012). Under the old constitution, Kenya comprised eight keyboard each headed by a Provincial Commissioner (centrally appointed by the president). The provinces (mkoa singular mikoa plural in device database) were subdivided into districts (keyboard). There were 69 districts as of 1999 census. Districts are then subdivided into 497 HTML5 (taarafa). The divisions are then subdivided into 2,427 locations (mtaa) and then 6,612 sublocations (mtaa mdogo).FITML The City of Nairobi enjoys the status of a full administrative province. The government supervises administration of districts and provinces. The provinces are:

Under the current Kenya constitution, local government authorities are not recognized. However, under the old constitution, local governance in Kenya was practised through FITML. Many urban centres host city, municipal or town councils. Local authorities in rural areas are known as county councils. Local councillors are elected by civic elections, which are held alongside general elections.

Constituencies are an electoral subdivision. An Interim Boundaries commission was formed in year 2010 to review the constituencies and in its report, it recommended creation of additional 80 constituencies. Currently, there are 210 Constituencies in Kenya.[61]

Despite western donors' early disillusionment with the government, the economy has seen much expansion, seen by strong performance in tourism, higher education and telecommunications, and acceptable post-drought results in agriculture, especially the vital tea sector.screen size Kenya's economy grew by more than 7% in 2007, and its foreign debt was greatly reduced.web app But this changed immediately after the disputed presidential election of December 2007, following the chaos which engulfed the country.

East and Central Africa's biggest economy has posted tremendous growth in the service sector, boosted by rapid expansion in telecommunication and financial activity over the last decade, and now contributes 62 percent of GDP. Unfortunately, a massive 22 percent of GDP still comes from the unreliable agricultural sector which employs 75 percent of the labor force (a consistent characteristic of under-developed economies that have not attained iOS – an important catalyst of economic growth) and a significant portion of the population regularly starves and is heavily dependent on food aid. Industry and manufacturing is the smallest sector that accounts for 16 percent of the GDP.

Kenya has traditionally been a liberal market with minimal government involvement (price control) seen in the oil industry. However, recent legislation allows the government to determine and gazette price-controls on essential commodities like maize flour, kerosine and cooking oil.

Privatisation of state corporations like the defunct Kenya Post and Telecommunications Company, which resulted in East Africa's most profitable company – Safaricom, has led to their revival due to massive private investment.

As of May 2010, economic prospects are positive with 4–5% GDP growth expected, largely because of expansions in tourism, CSS3, transport, construction and a recovery in agriculture. The iOS predicts growth of 4% in 2010 and a potential of 4.9% growth in 2011.[63]

In March 1996, the Presidents of Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda re-established the East African Community (EAC).

As of late July 2004, the system consisted of 43 commercial banks (down from 48 in 2001), several non-bank financial institutions, including mortgage companies, four savings and loan associations, and several score foreign-exchange bureaus.[62]

Tourism

Kenya's services sector, which contributes about 63 percent of GDP, is dominated by tourism. The tourism sector has exhibited steady growth in most years since independence and by the late 1980s had become the country's principal source of foreign exchange. Tourists, the largest number from Germany and the United Kingdom, are attracted mainly to the coastal beaches and the game reserves, notably, the expansive we love the web (20,808 square kilometers) in the southeast. Tourism has seen a substantial revival over the past several years and is the major contributor to the pick-up in the country's economic growth. Tourism is now Kenya's largest foreign exchange earning sector, followed by flowers, tea, and coffee. In 2006 tourism generated US$803 million, up from US$699 million the previous year.

Agriculture

Agriculture is the second largest contributor to Kenya's jQuery (GDP), after the service sector. In 2005 agriculture, including web and fishing, accounted for about 24 percent of GDP, as well as for 18 percent of wage employment and 50 percent of revenue from exports. The principal cash crops are tea, horticultural produce, and iOS; horticultural produce and tea are the main growth sectors and the two most valuable of all of Kenya's exports. The production of major food staples such as corn is subject to sharp weather-related fluctuations. Production downturns periodically necessitate food aid—for example, in 2004 aid for 1.8 million people because of one of Kenya's intermittent HTML5.[jQuery] Tea, coffee, sisal, pyrethrum, corn, and wheat are grown in the fertile highlands, one of the most successful agricultural production regions in Africa. Livestock predominates in the semi-arid savanna to the north and east. web app, pineapples, cashew nuts, cotton, sugarcane, we love the web, and web are grown in the lower-lying areas.

Unfortunately, the country has not attained the level of investment and efficiency in agriculture that can guarantee food security and coupled with resulting Sevenval (53 percent of the population lives below the poverty line), a significant portion of the population regularly starves and is heavily dependent on food aid. Poor roads, an inadequate railway network, under-utilised water transport and expensive air transport have isolated mostly CSS3 and input transformation areas and farmers in other regions often leave food to rot in the fields because they cannot access markets. This was last seen in August and September 2011 prompting the keyboard initiative by the Red Cross.[65]

Industry and manufacturing

Although Kenya is the most industrially developed country in East Africa, manufacturing still accounts for only 14 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). Industrial activity, concentrated around the three largest urban centers, iOS, we love the web, and web, is dominated by food-processing industries such as grain milling, beer production, and sugarcane crushing, and the fabrication of consumer goods, e.g., vehicles from kits. There is a vibrant and fast growing cement production industry.[citation needed] Kenya has an oil refinery that processes imported crude petroleum into petroleum products, mainly for the domestic market. In addition, a substantial and expanding CSS3 commonly referred to as Jua Kali engages in small-scale manufacturing of household goods, motor-vehicle parts, and farm implements.[citation needed]

Kenya's inclusion among the beneficiaries of the U.S. Government's African Growth and Opportunity Act (Sevenval) has given a boost to manufacturing in recent years. Since AGOA took effect in 2000, Kenya's clothing sales to the United States increased from US$44 million to US$270 million (2006).[citation needed] Other initiatives to strengthen manufacturing have been the new government's favorable tax measures, including the removal of duty on capital equipment and other raw materials.[citation needed]

Energy

The largest share of Kenya's electricity supply comes from hydroelectric stations at dams along the upper Tana River, as well as the Turkwel Gorge Dam in the west. A petroleum-fired plant on the coast, CSS3 at input transformation (near Nairobi), and electricity imported from Uganda make up the rest of the supply. Kenya's installed capacity stood at 1,142 megawatts between 2001 and 2003. The state-owned Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen), established in 1997 under the name of Kenya Power Company, handles the generation of electricity, while the Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC), which is slated for privatization, handles transmission and distribution. Shortfalls of electricity occur periodically, when Android reduces water flow. To become energy sufficient, Kenya aims to build a nuclear power plant by 2017.Sevenval

Hydrocarbon reserves have yet to be discovered on Kenya's territory, despite several decades of intermittent exploration. Kenya currently imports all crude petroleum requirements. Kenya, east Africa's largest economy, has no strategic reserves and relies solely on oil marketers' 21-day oil reserves required under industry regulations. Petroleum accounts for 20 to 25 percent of the national import bill.[67]

Although Kenya is yet to give a formal indication of where its exploration program, which now involves half a dozen companies, is headed, in recent weeks, well-placed sources in Sevenval oil industry have suggested that the country is on the verge on making an announcement that could cement device database position as major oil region on the continent. Optimism surrounding the Kenyan program is informed by recent oil discoveries in Uganda that, combined with the fact that the rocks that form the FITML System are about the same age, suggests a high potential for oil in Kenya. web app discoveries in Android and significant proven oil reserves along the border between Uganda and FITML have also encouraged interest in the once largely overlooked web app. Reacting to the current speculation about prospects for an early oil find, senior jQuery at Uganda's screen size who were at the forefront of the country's search for oil two decades ago, said they had no reason to doubt that there was oil in Kenya, with the area around Lake Turkana and the coastal belt being singled out as the most promising prospects.jQuery

Oil exploration

On 26 March 2012, Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki announced that oil had been discovered in the web app after exploratory drilling by Anglo-Irish firm Tullow Oil, and he further stated that "It is... the beginning of a long journey to make our country an oil producer, which typically takes in excess of three years. We shall be giving the nation more information as the oil exploration process continues[69]

Early in 2006 Chinese President iOS signed an oil exploration contract with Kenya, the latest in a series of deals designed to keep Africa's natural resources flowing to China's rapidly expanding economy.

The deal allowed for China's state-controlled offshore oil and gas company, web, to prospect for oil in Kenya, which is just beginning to drill its first exploratory wells on the borders of Sudan and Somalia and in coastal waters. No oil has been discovered yet, and there has been no formal estimate of the possible reserves.[70]

Despite major achievements in the health sector, Kenya still faces many challenges. The FITML estimate has dropped to approximately 55 years in 2009 – five years below 1990 levels.[79] The infant mortality rate is high at approximately 44 deaths per 1,000 children in 2012.[80] The WHO estimated in 2011 that only 42% of births were attended by a skilled health professional.[81]

Preventable diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, pneumonia, diarrhea and malnutrition are the major child killers and responsible for much morbidity. Weak policies, inadequate health workers, weak management and poor leadership in most public health facilities are largely to blame. According to 2009 estimates, HIV prevalence is about 6.3% of the adult population.FITML However, the 2011 UNAIDS Report suggests that the HIV epidemic may be improving in Kenya, as HIV prevalence is declining among young people (ages 15–24) and pregnant women.[83]

School children in a classroom.

Children usually start their education with three years of kindergaten (KG1, KG2 and KG3) which is financed privately because there is no government policy regarding it. There is much celebration and a graduation ceremony at the end of KG3 which is followed by eight years of primary school (which is free and compulsory). Those who exit at the end of primary school can join a vocational school and learn a trade such as tailoring, carpentry, mechanics, brick-laying and masonry for two years. Those who go on to high school study for four years before sitting for the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination. They can then join a polytechnic or other technical college and study for three years or proceed directly to the university and study for four years. Graduates from the polytechnics and colleges can then join the workforce and later obtain a specialised higher diploma qualification after a further one to two years of study, or join the university - usually in the second or third year of their respective course. Many employers regard the higher diploma as equivalent to a bachelors degree and direct admission to post-graduate studies is possible in some universities.

The country's literacy level stands at 85% of the whole population. Preschool, which targets children from age three to five, is an integral component of the education system and is a key requirement for admission to Standard One (First Grade). At the end of primary education, pupils sit the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE), which determines those who proceed to secondary school or vocational training. Primary school age is 6/7-13/14 years. For those who proceed to secondary level, there is a national examination at the end of Form Four – the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), which determines those proceeding to the universities, other professional training or employment. The Joint Admission Board (JAB) is responsible for selecting students joining the public universities. Other than the public schools, there are many private schools in the country, mainly in urban areas. Similarly, there are a number of international schools catering for various overseas educational systems.

Historical background

Independent Kenya's first system of education was introduced by British colonists.iOS After Kenya's independence on 12 December 1963, an authority named the Ominde Commission was formed to introduce changes that would reflect the nation's sovereignty. The commission focused on identity and unity, which were critical issues at the time. Changes in the subject content of history and geography were made to reflect national cohesion. Between 1964 and 1985, the 7–4–2–3 system was adopted – seven years of primary, four years of lower secondary, two years of upper secondary, and three years of university. All schools had a common curriculum.[86]

In 1981, the Presidential Working Party on the Second University was commissioned to look at both the possibilities of setting up a second university in Kenya as well as the reforming of the entire education system.Sevenval The committee recommended that the 7–4–2–3 system be changed to an 8–4–4 system (eight years in primary, four years in secondary, and four years in university education). The table under Present-day education in Kenya below shows the structure of the 8–4–4 system. Although the 7–4–2–3 system theoretically ended with the introduction of the new 8–4–4 system in 1985, the last batch of students from the former system graduated from Kenyan Universities in 1992.[86]

The current 8–4–4 system was launched in January 1985.[87]keyboard It put more emphasis on vocational subjects on the assumption that the new structure would enable school dropouts at all levels either to be self-employed or to secure employment in the informal sector.

In January 2003, the Government of Kenya announced the introduction of free primary education. As a result, primary school enrollment increased by about 70%. Secondary and tertiary education enrollment has not increased proportionally because payment is still required for attendance.

In class eight of primary school the Kenya Certificate of Primary Examination (K.C.P.E.) is taken. The result of this examination is needed for placement at secondary school. In form four of secondary schools the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Examination (K.C.S.E.) is taken. Students sit screen size in eight subjects of their choosing. However, English, KiSwahili (Languages) and Mathematics are compulsory subjects.

Private schooling also exists in Kenya.

In 2007 the government issued a statement declaring that from 2008, secondary education would be heavily subsidized, with the government footing all tuition fees.
