for holidays, he will say i am going to Africa (instead of naming the country he is going to). Or if there is a show on a certain region or country, they will refer to it as "Africa". Or people will ask you when you are in a foreign country "How is it in Africa?"... for godsake, the continent has 53 countries, several languages and different people, cultures, practices.. when i travel, i say i am going to France, UK or Canada , i do not say i am going to Europe, America... why can't people make the distinction and understand that Africa is not one single place, but a huge continent?
