Uganda
Land and Resources
The area of Uganda includes Lake George and Lake Kyoga; parts of Lake Victoria, Lake Edward, and Lake Albert; and the Nile River from its outlet at Lake Victoria to Nimule on the Sudan frontier. The land surface is remarkably diversified, with elevated plains, vast forests, low swamps, arid depressions, and snowcapped peaks, the highest of which is Margherita Peak (5109 m/16,762 ft) in the Ruwenzori Range in the southwest. Much of the south is forested, and most of the north is covered with savanna.
Climate
Despite being located along the equator, Uganda has a mild, equable climate, mainly because of its relatively high altitude. The temperature ranges from about 16° to 29° C (about 60° to 85° F). The average annual rainfall varies from some 760 mm (some 30 in) in the northeast to about 1520 mm (about 60 in) near Lake Victoria.
