Looking at the major famines, affecting whole countries or even groups of countries, there were about 25 in Africa in the last 100 years, of which 15 occurred in the last 15 years. There is no counting the more local famine situations that have occurred. This development reflects the explosive population growth, combined with an almost constant (civil) war / insurgence situation in several African countries. It is for that reason that East Africa - with countries like Sudan and Somalia - tops the list.

The only remaining territory considered by some to be a "colony" is West Sahara, which is controlled by Morocco.
The middle colonies produced different goods than the southern colonies. For example the Southern colonies produced cotton and tobacco, while the middle colonies produced other goods. In terms of slavery, the New England countries gave up slavery first. Middle colonies like New Jersey were one of the last states to abolish slavery.
