Africa

Africa is the oldest and most enduring landmass on the planet. 97% of the soil under your feet in Africa dates backs more than 300 million years. Every single human being on the planet is related to Mitochondrial Eve, a female born some 150,000 years ago in Tanzania or Ethiopia. We are all African!

An estimated 912,000,000 people inhabit the continent and speak well over 1,000 languages making it the most culturally and ethnically diverse group of people on the planet. Sounds very much like an Aub-like place for exploration.
