Kenya is a state in East Africa. It borders Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Tanzania, Uganda and the Indian Ocean. Fossil finds from East Africa suggest that prehistoric humans lived in this area as early as 20 million years ago.

Kenya's gross national product has grown above average in the last few decades compared to other African countries. Since the population growth was also above average, however, this did not result in a significant improvement in the living conditions of most Kenyans.

Kenya lives from the export of coffee and tea, from industry (machine and vehicle construction, textiles and clothing, food and luxury foods) and from tourism (national parks and game reserves). The trade in ivory and the shooting of elephants is prohibited.

In the last few years, as coffee lost its importance, so did the flower industry. In 2003, Kenya replaced Israel as the world's largest flower exporter. Many flowers, especially roses, that we can buy here in Germany / Europe have made the long flight from the equator behind them.
