Top 10 Poorest Countries In Africa 2022.
Poorest Countries In Africa.
Africa is the richest continent in the world in terms of natural resources and there is no debate about that. But Africa still has most of the poorest countries in the world. In fact, Africa has 21 countries in the 25 poorest countries in the world. The reason for this is that most African countries are heavily impacted by high rates of corruption, lack of proper medical and educational facilities, and underdeveloped infrastructures. There is also political unrest and civil wars in these African Countries.
In this video, we are going to take a look at the top 10 poorest countries in Africa. We are going to look at their economy and the different factors that slow their economy and bring about poverty.
We are going to be ranking them based on their GDP per Capita, which is the measurement of the country's economic output per person. It is calculated by dividing the entire country’s GDP by the total population.

Number 10: Togo.
Togo is a small country with about 7 million people in west Africa. The GDP per Capita of Togo is 690 U.S. Dollars which makes it one of the poorest countries in the continent. The Majority Of Togo’s Population live in rural areas and these people suffer high levels of poverty. The major reasons accounting to Togo’s poverty is lack of access to proper education, Government Corruption, and also the poor health care system in the country which results in low life expectancy and high birth rates.
Number 9: Sierra Leone.
This is another small nation in West Africa, with a GDP per Capita of just above 500 U.S. Dollars. The reason for Sierra Leone's poverty is as a result of the civil war that took place between 1991 and 2002. It left the economy of this country in shambles. Despite still trying to recover from that, other reasons like internal corruption, lack of civil liberties, and lack of accessible education adds to the persistent poverty of the country.
