Sierra Leone has a tropical climate, with a diverse environment ranging from savannah to rainforests. Sierra Leone has a total area of 71,740 km2 (27,699 sq mi) and an estimated population of 6 million (2011 United Nations estimate).

A large number of freed slaves from the United States and the Caribbean were resettled there in later decades, and the Protectorate of Sierra Leone was formally organised in 1896. Sierra Leone became independent in 1961. Government corruption and mismanagement of resources contributed to the Civil War (1991-2002), which devastated the country and left more than 50,000 dead, much infrastructure destroyed, and over 2,000,000 displaced as refugees abroad. In 2014, an Ebola outbreak further weakened the country.

The armed forces remained on the sideline during the 2007 presidential election, but still look to the UN Integrated Office in Sierra Leone (UNIOSIL) - a civilian UN mission - to support efforts to consolidate peace. The new government's priorities include furthering development, creating jobs, and stamping out endemic corruption.
