Yes there are 14 all spread around, the most famous is the Kaliomo it is a constructive volcano near Kenya. It is 2000ft tall. When it erupted in 1922 it killed 1000 people from all around Africa. It ruined many, many farms and 1000s of homes. Ash fell into rivers causing the rivers to rise in temperature which made all of the wildlife in the rivers die. Many railways and roads where burnt to pieces by the explosion. Every tree lying within the 45km blast zone was flattened and destroyed. Electricity supplies were interrupted and telephone wires were cut. As with the trees, nothing survived within the blast zone. It ruined 12% of crops by settling dust. It killed 15% of cattle because of the lava.
