Where the world is Kenya??



Different Auckland town centers have adopted Rugby teams from countries that qualified for the World Cup. I found out information about : The location in Auckland; Something special about this place; A 'potted' history of the place; If it has it's own symbol of some sort.(If we couldn't find a symbol we chose a picture that told more about the place) . The country that I have been studding is Kenya, the sports that Kenya play is not only rugby and soccer.Kenya has their own soccer football federation that's cool.The population of this awesome country is 41,070,394.This country is on the Eastern Africa boarding the Indian Ocean between Somalia and Tanzania.The capitol city of Kenya is Nairobi.
