TRIP TO MAPPI
Introduction
Mappi is a small village located in the Nambia highlands in Kenya. It was originally founded by bushmen who moved there from Tanzania in the mid-1800s and it’s still inhabited by people from that region today. The village has around 2,000 inhabitants and it’s situated within a few kilometres of the border with Tanzania; however, this does not stop many people from travelling across into Tanzania illegally every day!

Mappi is a small village in Kenya that has about 2,000 people living there. The village sits just a few kilometres from the border with Tanzania and is situated on top of a mountain range. This means that it acts as an effective natural boundary between Kenya and Tanzania, which makes it difficult for people who live here to travel back and forth between the two countries (unless they have permission).

The land surrounding Mappis is covered in grassy plains that stretch for miles upon miles; this makes it ideal for grazing livestock such as goats and sheep. These animals graze on these lands because they can find food easily enough here without having to travel very far away from their homes in search of grasses or bushes which are often scarce during dry seasons when there isn’t much rain at all!
Mappi is named after the mountain range where its inhabitants live.

The mountain range is known as the Nambian highlands or Mappi highlands due to its shape, which resembles many different animals such as giraffes or elephants!
As part of the Kenyan-Tanzanian boundary agreement in 1977, Kenya withdrew her forces from its side of this mountain range and agreed to return them when Tanzania withdrew her troops from its side.
As part of the Kenyan-Tanzanian boundary agreement in 1977, Kenya withdrew her forces from her side of this mountain range and agreed to return them when Tanzania withdrew her troops from its side. This treaty was signed by Kenyatta and Nyerere on June 16th that year.
In order for you to understand why we are visiting this area, it is important for us to know what happened during those times when Kenya had withdrawn its troops from their side of this mountain range but Tanzania still had hers there at that time (1977).
In 1984, however, during another territorial dispute between these two countries, 100 people were killed when Kenyan soldiers crossed into Tanzania illegally to attack villages along their shared border.

The conflict was sparked by the Ugandan government’s refusal to hand over illegal settlers from Kenya who had been working on its soil since 1963. The Tanzanian government responded by sending troops into southern Sudan (then part of Uganda) and invading southern Somalia in retaliation against Uganda’s actions. This led to a number of battles as both sides sought control over territory they claimed as theirs; but due to lack of resources and equipment, both sides suffered heavy losses until 1988 when peace talks began between them under mediation by former US president Jimmy Carter and Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi
This led to increased tensions between Mappi’s inhabitants and their Kenyan neighbours which resulted in many arrests and one person being killed over the issue in 1994.
The dispute was over land ownership, which led to increased tensions between Mappi’s inhabitants and their Kenyan neighbours. The dispute was between Kenya and Tanzania, with both countries claiming ownership of the area.
The issue was resolved in 1997 through negotiations between both governments and other regional leaders such as those from Uganda and Rwanda.
Conclusion
Mappi is a beautiful place to visit, and it’s easy to see why so many people have chosen this area as the location for their holiday. The mountain range which divides the two countries acts as a natural barrier between both nations, which makes it an interesting subject for study in geography class – especially if you’re studying African history!
