This map reveals the primary import partners for African nations, highlighting the shifting dynamics of global trade across the continent. As the data shows, China has emerged as the dominant trading partner, leading in the majority of African countries — represented in red. This reflects China's strategic investments and infrastructure projects under initiatives like the Belt and Road.
However, the picture is not entirely uniform. South Africa (green) stands out as a significant regional player, especially in Southern Africa, where it serves as the top import source for several neighboring countries. Meanwhile, France (blue) retains influence in parts of West and Central Africa, a legacy of its colonial past and continued economic ties.
Other European countries such as Spain and Italy also appear, albeit to a lesser extent, showing the presence of diversified trade relationships with specific nations.
This distribution underscores not only China's growing influence but also the regional trade hubs and enduring colonial-era economic linkages that continue to shape Africa’s import landscape today.
