There was no continental glaciation in Africa during the glacial periods, but its climate was affected. Lower temperatures decreased evaporation rates, resulting in an overall wetter climate.

Yes, Africa was affected by the last ice age. The ice age in Africa was not as severe as in other regions, but there is evidence of glaciers in high-altitude areas such as Mount Kilimanjaro and the Rwenzori Mountains.

Is the glacier activity during the last ice age the cause of US voting patterns?
