No it's not, if I'm based in Tunisia for example, why would I pick that region over one in Europe?

[kolikotime]

I perhaps should have qualified this with Sub Saharan Africa. Tunisia and the rest of North Africa might as well culturally be another world.

Tunisia is practically Europe.

[curiousgal]

That's my point. It makes no sense to talk about "Africa".

Well then you would be based in Europe, thus ruling out the original qualifier.
