This file lists the heads of state and government of northern Africa in 2060. It follows the northern range named in the Africa lore. These people have no character files by design. If one of them enters play as an NPC, the Game Master builds a character file from the E row with rank N/A. Civilians and officials are rank N/A in this game. Breakers among them keep the rank the lore gives.
Every country here belongs to the African Gate agency, led by High Coordinator Amara N'Gai. Egypt sits in Africa but belongs to the Middle Eastern Gate agency, so its entry is in Leaders of the Middle East. The southern range is in Leaders of Southern Africa.
