Best Jobs in Africa & Middle East

Africa is a massive continent, culturally diverse and topographically different. The second largest continent on the planet, it is 25% bigger than the 3rd continent, North America. China, the United States, Argentina, New Zealand, India and all of Europe could fit inside of her with enough remaining room for Panama, Costa Rica, Belize and Jamaica. But unknown to most, it is also the 2nd largest per capita continent.

The Middle East is a part of the Asian Subcontinent located above and below the Tropic of Cancer. The region is typically divided into several countries from Israel and Lebanon in the west to the UAE and Oman in the East.* Turkey and Iran boarder her to the North with Yemen considered the southern boundary.

Egypt

located on the Northeast part of the African continent, has a long history. The second most populated country in Africa, Egypt supports an assorted population and climate. While 87% of her residents are Muslim, 10-12% are Christians. A mild Mediterranean climate supports her northern boarder with a warmer environment along the Red Sea. The Nile River blushes Egypt’s banks from the lush deltas, through the Temples of Carnac and Luxor. Past the Pyramids of Giza to the Great Library at Alexandria, the Nile’s history is as long as her length.


The 1976 “Camp David Peace Accords” made Egypt the first “Arab” nation to make peace with Israel. This event has seen her reap many dividends. Along with securing lands in the Sinai she has open boarders with all her neighbors. European tourist flock to the year round resorts at Hurghada and Sharm-el Sheikh, while business maximizes the advantages of her waterway – the Suez Canal.

According to the Index of Economic Freedom, “Egypt's economy is 53.2% free…which makes it the world's 127th freest economy.” The top tax rate is 20%.

South Africa

has had a poor reputation for years because of its horrible racial past and is still experiencing problems with her northern neighbor, Zimbabwe.
