About Uganda
Uganda is a landlocked country on the East African Plateau that straddles the equator, according to the World Bank. This guide uses a small set of checked records about barkcloth, the Kasubi Tombs, Bigwala, and population and work data. It teaches source-aware English: keep a name, date, and source together, and do not make a narrow record tell a larger story.
