unrest caused by the tyrannical despot Idi Amin the country switched hands
several times before president Koku Chala was elected in 2011. Conflict
with Rwanda has been escalating since the mid 90's, and in 2017 Rwanda
began invading the Ugandan border. They were barely pushed back when
Uganda petitioned the EEC for aid, who almost immediately sent EDF troops
into the area. Armed conflict continues, however since the EDF became
involved Rwanda has been slowly decreasing its violent aggression.
Uganda is again on the upswing as european corporations move into the country,
and the tourist trade is slowly beginning to pick up. Uganda has
allowed the EDF almost free reign in their country and have cut back their
own military significantly, putting the money saved towards economic rebuilding,
education, and political reform. Unfortunately Uganda still
has a long way to go, AIDS hit the country extremely hard, then the wasting
plague came and hit even harder. But Uganda is definitely on the
upswing.
