Cities of Eastern Africa (World) collects this atlas's city entities that sit within the Eastern Africa subregion of the United Nations M49 standard, region code 014. The UN Statistics Division's M49 overview page assigns these places to Eastern Africa: Burundi, Comoros, Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mayotte, Mozambique, Reunion, Rwanda, Seychelles, Somalia, South Sudan, Uganda, the United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. This group node anchors every atlas city already tied to one of those East African countries, from national capitals such as Nairobi, Addis Ababa and Kampala to smaller present day district seats, so a reader can browse the region's urban settlements as one connected set instead of hunting country by country through the atlas's own country listing.
