In the series, Anderson visits the West Africa coast, to see five former colonies that have come to symbolize all that is synonymous with the 'Violent Coast' Wars, Drugs, Dictators, Child Soldiers, Diamonds & Corruption. But with Peace on the horizon things could be about to change for the better.[3]
