2. Ugandan Animals
The prevalence of wild animals in Uganda
has been slowly diminishing. The civil
war has caused a major turmoil for the
animals because due to the extreme
poverty, soldiers and Ugandan citizens
have been killing the animals for food.
The Ugandan government has recently
established many wildlife parks that now
serve as homes for these animals. In
Uganda it is very common to see
hippopotamus, crocodiles, elephants,
zebras, monkeys, buffalo, and lions.
Animals are just one of the many aspects
of Uganda’s wildlife that show the
country’s diversity.

3. Ugandan Politics
For 20 years civil war has
shattered the lives and livelihoods
of the people in Uganda. A war
between the Ugandan government
and rebel forces known as the
Lord’s Resistance Army, has forced
thousands of families to be
uprooted from their homes. Rebel
groups slaughter families in order
to kidnap children to serve as
armed gunman to serve in their
cause. One rebel group is proud
of having the youngest rebel fighter
at just five years of age. Conflict
has slowed but has not ended.
The entire country feels the Museum Room
repercussions of this conflict today.

4. Ugandan Education
Resuming a normal life since the civil war
is difficult. Education has suffered greatly.
Only 57% of Ugandan children will
completely primary school. Of these, only
12% will complete secondary school.
Over 1 million children in Uganda between
the ages of 6 and 12 will never see a
classroom nor will they see the freedom
that a basic education can provide.

5. Ugandan Disease
There are many diseases that
completely consume the country of
Uganda as a whole. Malaria,
tuberculosis and yellow fever are
among the most prevalent. AIDS and
HIV are by far the worst diseases that
have taken over the country. There is
about 1.2 million people in Uganda
that are currently living with HIV. This
includes 150,000 children. In 2009
alone there were an estimated 64,000
people that died from AIDS in Uganda.
A devastating 1.2 million children in
Uganda have become orphaned due
to the horrible AIDS/HIV epidemic.

6. Ugandan Religion
Although Christianity has become more
popular in the country of Uganda, there are
other religions practiced in the country.
The dark, suffocating tentacles of witchcraft
and voodoo wreak spiritual havoc across
the board. More than 60% of the
population believes strongly in its powers.
There have been many cases reported
recently where doctors claim to have
clients who capture children and bring both
their body parts and their blood to be taken
up by the satanic spirits.
