Best Answer

Africa is the world's second-largest and second most-populous continent, after Asia. At about 30.2 million km² (11.7 million sq mi) including adjacent islands, it covers 6% of the Earth's total surface area and 20.4% of the total land area.[2] With a billion people (as of 2009, see table) in 61 territories, it accounts for about 14.8% of the World's human population. The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. Not counting the disputed territory of Western Sahara, there are 53 countries, including Madagascar and various island groups, associated with the continent.

55 countries and a list of cities is almost impossible to find because there are so many I have been searching for an answer myself but have-not seen a suitable one yet. I think the website Food For Africa is working on getting the answer but will probably not have it for awhile as it is such a hard answer to find. I'm sorry I couldn't help very well but maybe FFA can. ;-)
