Collapse Country Profile

Remaining untouched until relatively late in the colonizing of Africa, Zambia (or Northern Rhodesia, as it was first known) was governed by the British in the late 19th century.  A land of incredible wealth, Zambia faced hardship after gaining independence since there were few trained and educated Zambians capable of running the government, and the economy was largely dependent on foreign expertise. In the mid-1970s, the price of copper, Zambia's principal export, suffered a severe decline worldwide. By the mid-1990s, despite limited debt relief, Zambia's per capita foreign debt remained among the highest in the world.  With the debt relief of the new millennium and greater diversification, Zambia’s economy has grown much stronger.
