Extractions: THE KARIMOJONG The migration and settlement Social setup Political setup Economic setup Internal and External Aggressions Introduction Karamoja is a place comprising of three districts, ten different tribes speaking different languages-some completely incompatible-with differing rich cultures and traditions, some at the same level of civilization like any other part of Uganda and others have never gone to school, but in all the people of Karamoja share a semi nomadic lifestyle keeping livestock with subsistence farming. Karamoja lies mostly in the northeastern region of present-day Uganda and nearly straddles Uganda's border with Kenya. The climatic conditions in Karamoja are harsh by any standard: the low annual rainfall is exacerbated by the fact that when rain does fall it comes only at one time of the year. Like that plain in South Africa, Karamoja is also a vast plain, located in northeast Uganda. It is the home of the Karimojong, a people proud of their traditions, religion, and Nilotic heritage. Life for the Karimojong has, for the most part, remained unchanged for thousands of years. Western technology, medicine, dress, culture, and Christianity, found in varying degrees throughout Uganda, have made virtually no inroads among the Karimojong. Geographically, ethnically, and politically, Karamoja is, for all practical purposes, a country within a country. For better or for worse, the land and its people remain a vestige of precolonial Africa.

Extractions: Uganda Uganda A fisherman casting his net UGANDA'S RIFT VALLEY foundation provides the country with an alluvial plateau and plentiful lakes and rivers. Mountain peaks mark geological fault lines along its eastern and western boundaries and provide cooler temperatures and ample rainfall. This environment was peopled by successive waves of immigrants, some of whom displaced indigenous hunting societies during the first millennium A.D. Most of the newcomers eventually settled in the region that would become southern Uganda, and their evolving political and cultural diversity contributed to conflicts that flared up over several centuries. These enmities still simmered in the twentieth century, but none of them seriously derailed the modernization process that was occurring in Uganda as it approached independence in 1962. Some local beliefs reinforced the process of acculturation, emphasizing patronage as a means of advancement and valuing education as a necessary step toward that advancement. British educational systems and world religions were readily accepted in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The focus of modernization was clearly in Buganda, however, and during the decades after independence, national progress toward modernization slowed as the nation's non-Baganda majority attempted to adjust this balance in their favor. Military rulea precarious alternative to dominance by the Bagandafailed to implant a sense of nationhood because the notion of government as a mechanism for expropriating wealth was merely replaced by that of government as a brutalizing force.
