Definition:
- A fragile or failing state is a state whose central government is so weak or ineffective that it has little practical control over much of its territory, non-provision of public services, widespread corruption and criminality, refugees and involuntary movement of populations, and sharp economic decline.
So according to united States think tank fund for peace, countries from EAST AFRICA only Kenya ( 17 ), Burundi (18) and South Sudan ( 1 ) are in the top twenty. Tanzania is 64, USA 154, North Korea 28 and Uganda 24 among others.
Question is, are we seriously comparing Tanzania and Kenya?
