Italian term or phrase: sviluppando formazioni statali autonome
Contesto:

La regione – che geologicamente è il risultato della formazione della Great Rift Valley che attraversa l’Africa Orientale e che è occupata dai grandi laghi- è solcata da diverse faglie (faults) che interrompono bruscamente il suo rilievo, fatto di alte montagne, di vasti altipiani e di una fascia costiera quasi desertica. Questa struttura complessa ha contribuito all’isolamento in cui buona parte del territorio ha vissuto per secoli, sviluppando formazioni statali autonome ma chiuse ai rapporti con l’esterno.

The region is the Horn of Africa.

Molte Grazie,

Barbara
