African Riots is a nine-player Diplomacy variant.
The Map is based on the national borders in the beginning of the 21th century. The division in territories as well as the division of water-spaces is mainly edited regarding the playability but nevertheless often shows realistic regions. This variant doesn't represent a realistic scenario concerning the involved parties but rather tries to consider the natural occurrence of resources in Africa.

This is an "Aberration"-variant of Africa which means: "a player may build on any supply center he owns which is vacant as long as he still owns at least one of his original home centers." This is a tribute to the really large map and the long distant lines of communication.
There are some special geographical characteristics in this variant e.g. some navigable rivers.

Here you find a list of all geographical characteristics in African Riots and the original info-text.
