Central afrika. Central afrika after 1889
you are: Central afrika
For the considered period in the field of research of this part of Africa considerable work has been done. Its most part has been connected with a policy of the European powers, in particular Englishmen in Mjasalende, Germans in Tanganyika and Frenchmen in their equatorial possession. As a result very many research enterprises did not put to themselves any large scientifically-geographical problem. We assume to consider research of the Central Africa in a following order: at first-research unknown area to the West from lake of Tanganyika, further-research, most closely connected with pool of Congo and, at last,-connected with the Western Africa in mezhdureche Congo, Niger and Nile. After that we will pass to East Africa, and, as well as by consideration of opposite coast, we will go from the south on the north. Such plan far is not perfect, and here and there we from pego deviate, but, adhering to it, it is possible to give the coherent review of set small, but the important researches.
The Establishment of the British domination in the country Njasa has grown out mainly Henry Dzhopstosh's of work; and Alfreda SHarpa, these areas which have personally taken part in studying. The first of them in 1889 investigated area between lakes Njasa and Tanganyika and has opened the southern end of lake Rukva. Coming much to the south, than it was supposed. The same year SHarp investigated area to the West from the river More widely and in 1890 has made travel from lake Njasa to the river Loangva. It has passed also from northern coast of lake Njasa to lake Tanganyika and has visited on lake Mweru. During the same period Thomson has finished the research work in the Central Africa, having made travel from the river is wider in area to the south from lake Bangveolo.
