Over the past several years, the United States Government (U.S.) has started to appreciate the strategic importance of Africa. However, because of patterns of ethnic violence, disease, terrorist activities, and other governmental and economic challenges, the future of Africa is uncertain. To combat this uncertainty, the US has begun to take a holistic approach toward achieving its strategic objectives regarding Africa. The Department of Defense will contribute to the U.S. government efforts by establishing a Geographic Combatant Command on the continent of Africa. U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) will focus its effort on theatre security cooperation, building security capacity, improving governance, deterring aggression and responding to crises.
