About Kagera Region
Kagera is one of Tanzania‘s 31 administrative regions. The region is located in the northwestern corner of Tanzania on the western shore of Lake Victoria. The region neighbours Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi and lies across the lake from Kenya. The region was known as West Lake before June 1979. The regional capital is the city of Bukoba. According to the 2012 national census, the region had a population of 2,458,023, which was lower than the pre-census projection of 2,763,329.[2]: page 2 For 2002-2012, the region’s 3.2 percent average annual population growth rate was tied for the third-highest in the country.[2]: page 4 It was also the ninth-most densely populated region, with 97 people per square kilometre.[2]: page 6
On 10 September 2016, the region was struck by an earthquake measuring 5.9 on the moment magnitude scale. It was the biggest earthquake to have been recorded in Tanzania.[3]
Its attempted annexation by Uganda in 1978 triggered the Uganda–Tanzania War which culminated in the overthrow of Ugandan dictator Idi Amin on 11 April 1979, at the Fall of Kampala.
