Film lesson "Mountains of the Moon"

Europeans faced many hardships as they went to the middle of Africa. Tribes of the native African people would ambush and kill Europeans. Malaria would also kill the people. The journey was so long, that many people died of heat and exuation. The reason why the lake that is the center of the Nile river is named after a British queen is because an Englishman found it and then named it after the queen of England. The Europeans had guns, while the Africans had spears. The Europeans would eventually get machine guns and a cure for Malaria. This would allow easy penetration through the heart of Africa.
