Originally it was the ESA's construction of the Kilimanjaro Massdriver
and the mass hiring of the people to serve as orbital workgangers that
was the cause of such good relations between Tanzania and the EEC.
Then European businesses started moving in, bringing up the economy.
In 2019 the EEC ruled that the ESA could not be excluded from government
influence and the massdriver and spaceports were brought under EEC regulation.
The EDF has a strong presence here, but works amicably alongside Tanzania's
own military forces. Education reforms in the country have been vast,
and now Tanzania boasts one of the highest literacy rates in all of Africa.
Tanzania is beautiful, relatively safe, and extremely popular with tourists, whose trade also boosts the nationwide econom of the country. One of the reasons the tourist trade is so successful here is that most of the country is still wild, and set aside as a protected national parkland. The wildlife here is flourishing, the air is clean, and safari trips have become all the rage for the wealthy in Japan, Europe and America. The island paradise of Zanzibar is also among one of the best places in the world to get away. All these wonders plus the protection of the EDF make it an ideal vacation spot.
The
people of Tanzania are prospering better than they have in the history
of their country, still not everyone is happy. Rebel groups opposed
to the EDF presence have started to spring up, and actively engage EDF
troops on patrol. The leading cause of dissidence among the rebels
is the rumors of what happens to the workgangers, added fuel to the fire
is the fact that no one hired as a workganger is ever seen again.
