AFRICOM (U.S. Africa Command)

U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) is a branch of the U.S. military responsible for overseeing American military activities across Africa. Its goal is to strengthen security, support stability, and build partnerships with African nations to address issues like terrorism, conflict, and humanitarian crises. AFRICOM coordinates exercises, training, and intelligence sharing with allies to promote peace and safeguard U.S. interests in the region. It operates with a focus on collaborative efforts rather than direct combat, aiming to help African countries improve their own security capabilities while maintaining regional stability.
