Where is Africa?
In the North, Center, East, South or West?
You ask, ‘which country?’
You answer, ‘Africa!’
What is Africa?
Is it Nigeria, South Africa, Chad, Kenya or Morocco?
They think, a particular race
They assume, a dark location
Why Africa?
Is it their ignorance, an illusion or hate?
Some see, a location
Some don’t know we have 54 countries
How Africa?
Is it the history, people or culture?
We know, we are more than just a continent
We believe we are bigger than the stereotype.
Food for thought:
A few years back, it was the illusion that ‘Africa’ was a ‘country’. That has almost cleared up. Lately, they took it a notch higher with erroneous statements like, ‘A particular country is investing in Africa!’
This erroneous statement had me writing this poem on the spot. You need to get your facts right, ‘where exactly in Africa?!’
Are you still confused about Africa? Scroll up again and read between the lines of the Poem.

I am not certain in what context you are using the word ‘divided’.
Although, if you are asking about ‘Africa’ based on the poem, Africa is a continent with 54 countries. The countries are either in West Africa, South Africa, East Africa, North Africa and Central Africa.
In summary, Africa is the continent. There are many countries. That calls for a knowledge of the specific region or country we are talking about when we need to make a reference to the continent.
I hope this helps. Thank you for your question (although it was not so clear).
