Africa is the world’s second-largest and second-most populous continent, known for its diverse cultures, landscapes, and wildlife.

It’s home to some of the oldest civilisations, stunning natural wonders like the Sahara Desert and Victoria Falls, and a rich tapestry of languages and traditions.

Africa, a home to 57 countries, is a continent abundant in natural resources, yet it’s often linked with an economy in decline, particularly due to the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, conflicts within its nations, and disruptions in global supply chains.

However, contrary to this prevailing narrative, many African economies demonstrate resilience. Below is the list of top nine countries with the highest currency in Africa compared to the US Dollar:
