The Great Rift, also known as the East African Rift, is a tectonic plate boundary that stretches over 4,000 miles from the Afar Triangle in Ethiopia to Mozambique. It is formed by the divergence of the African Plate and the Somali Plate, leading to the creation of rift valleys, volcanic activity, and unique geological features. This region is home to diverse ecosystems and wildlife, including the famous Serengeti National Park and Lake Victoria. The Great Rift has significant geological importance, as it provides insights into the processes of plate tectonics and the formation of new landforms.
