Why did the ingalls leave the prairie?
This question should actually be, where did the family moved to BEFORE little House on the Prairie! When they left Pepin, Wisconsin, they moved to Rothville, Chariton County, Missouri for almost a full year, then on to Rutland Township, Montgomery County, Kansas. When they left Kansas, they briefly went back to the Missouri home site, and then back to Pepin, Wisconsin. Since Laura never wrote about this, NO ONE talks about it or includes it, but IT HAPPENED THIS WAY! Research and court house documentation and dates proves this to be correct!

That's a great question. The name of Africa before it was named is Mandingar. You see, shortly after homo erectus developed the ability to name things (even though at this point they were generally verbal grunts), they called it Mandingar; scientists such as Dr. Johan Van Verstan have been able to trace back the grunts, which, when combined with academic speculation and hypothetical alphabetization, the name the grunts would symbologically be made into is "Mandingar"...

Where are the Sahara rain forests and savannas of Africa located?
The Sahara is a desert and thus has no rain forests or savannas. Rain forests in Africa are located mainly in the equatorial regions, especially around the Congo River Basin. The African savannas are transition regions between forests and more arid or desert climates. They are found around the African woodlands and rain forests, the most prominent of the savannas being the Serengeti in Tanzania and Kenya.
