BackgroundThe United Republic
of Tanzania was formed out of the union of two sovereign states
namely Tanganyika and Zanzibar. Tanganyika became a sovereign state
on 9th December, 1961 and became a Republic the following year.
Zanzibar became independent on 10th December, 1963 and the People's
Republic of Zanzibar was established after the revolution of 12th
January, 1964. The two sovereign republics formed the United
Republic of Tanzania on 26th April, 1964. However, the Government of
the United Republic of Tanzania is a unitary republic consisting of
the Union Government and the Zanzibar Revolutionary Government.
Tanzania is the biggest (land area) among the East African countries
(i.e. Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania). Tanzania has a spectacular
landscape of mainly three physiographic regions namely the Islands
and the coastal plains to the east; the inland saucer-shaped
plateau; and the highlands. The Great Rift Valley that runs from
north east of Africa through central Tanzania is another landmark
that adds to the scenic view of the country. The country has the
largest concentration of wild animals. It also has pristine sandy
beaches and Africa’s highest and snow-capped mountain, Mt.
Kilimanjaro.
Dar es Salaam is the commercial capital and major sea port for
Tanzania Mainland and it serves neighbouring land-locked countries
of Malawi, Zambia, Burundi, Rwanda, and Uganda, as well as Eastern
DRC. Other sea ports include Zanzibar, Tanga, and Mtwara. Because of
its geographical and locational advantage, Dar es Salaam Port
presents itself as the gateway into East and Central Africa.
Furthermore, this renders Tanzania as a logical investment
destination for investors.
Since attaining political independence in 1961, Tanzania has held
without fail Presidential and Parliamentary Elections (general
elections) after every 5 year period. Following results from the
Presidential and Parliamentary Elections held on 14th December,
2005, the 4th President of Tanzania, H.E. Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete was
sworn into office on 21st December, 2005 for a five-year term of
office.
