Cape Verde

The former Portuguese colony which was once the centre of the slave trade is often admired for its achievement of political and economic stability.  Several droughts caused the deaths of about 200,000 people in the 20th century though its population is among the healthiest in Africa.

Since its independence, it has greatly improved its health infrastructure. People can live as long as 73 years with the life expectancy between male and female being 71 and 75 respectively.
