Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) today announced a new Atlanta to Monrovia, Liberia service, expanding the ability of the leading U.S. carrier to operate flights to Africa. The new services, scheduled to launch on September 4, will connect John Robert Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in Atlanta with a stop in Accra, Ghana.

In addition to Monrovia, Delta will also fly to Accra, Ghana, the capital of Ghana and Ghana's second largest city. On June 2, Delta will also launch a service from Atlanta to Liberia, Liberia's third largest economic city, and will make a stopover at Liberia International Airport (LIA) to support the 2010 World Cup journey. In addition, the new Atlanta - Liberia service will allow you to visit Liberia visa-free for the first time in the history of the USA. The comparison was made by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and the International Air Transport Association.

The Mesurado River, where the first settlers of Liberia settled between 1820 and 1822, is located south of the city of Monrovia, Liberia's second largest city. In 1821, US Navy ships resumed their exploration of what is now Liberia, and Bushrod Island, north of Monrovia, is home to one of America's first naval bases in the Atlantic. The place where the first freed slaves arrived in Liberia from America in 1822 is a popular tourist destination for tourists from the United States, Europe, Africa and the Middle East, as well as Africa.

The mission was to learn more about the history of the slave trade in Liberia and its impact on the country's economy.

Monrovia, the capital of Liberia, welcomed the first freed slaves to the United States in 1820 and named them after US President James Monroe. The result is a country whose flag and constitution are modeled after the United States and whose capital is named after it.

Monrovia was renamed after James Monroe, then America's president, and the resulting state of Liberia would become the second Haiti - like the world's black republic at that time. The city was later renamed Monroia because sending freed black slaves to Liberia was preferable to emancipation in America.

Liberia retained its independence during the scramble for Africa, but lost its claim after Britain and France annexed large areas. Many Liberians left the country and settled in other parts of Africa, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and South Africa.

Afro-Americans gradually migrated to the colony and became known as Americo-Liberians, many of whom are still Liberians today. For the first time in Liberia's history, Liberia was controlled by indigenous peoples, not by Americans or Liberians. The Greater Monrovia area was divided into 16 zones, which the clans divided into other districts of Liberia.

As the institution of slavery grew in America, reaching nearly four million slaves in the mid-19th century, a growing population from the US decided to emigrate to Liberia as well. The company sent more than 13,000 emigrants to Liberia, and the newspaper industry in Monrovia expanded when the Liberia Herald, the first newspaper to appear in Africa, was opened. Nicknames for Monrovia are "Never Sleeps the City," which refers to its status as a financial center.

If you combine a few days of sightseeing in Monrovia with a trip to a beach resort a few miles from the capital, Liberia is establishing itself as a viable tourist destination.

The University of Liberia, which is located in the capital, competes against Cuttington University College at college level in a variety of sports. Monrovia is home to one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the world, the University of Liberia. It is based on a time when former slaves from America first settled in Monrosia and were stationed in West Africa during the colonial period, when they first settled in Monrovia. The Episcopal Institution, the oldest university in Liberia and the second oldest in Africa, is located on the shores of Lake Liberia near the city of Lofa.

After the civil war of the 1990 "s, the once prosperous African country found itself in the midst of a population decimated by displacement, infrastructure, and the economy. Liberia's health care network as a whole suffered during the civil war of the 1990 "s, and the tiny medical infrastructure that existed before the outbreak, which had fewer than 50 Liberian doctors, was gutted. Today, Monrovia is overrun by thousands of refugees who have fled to neighbouring Sierra Leone.

Monrovia was named after James Monroe, the first president of the new Republic of Liberia, after which the capital of the new Republic of Liberia is named. The settlement was originally named "Liberia" after the capital of Monroia, in honor of President JamesMonroe, who procured the land for the settlement in the late 18th and early 19th centuries as part of his campaign to send blacks to Africa. In 1964, a free port in Monrosia was placed under the jurisdiction of the Liberian government for the first time, and it was called "Monovia."
