The devastating rule of Idi Amin was followed by unstable living conditions in Uganda. In recent times, Uganda has however achieved the much craved peace and stability in the general living in Uganda.
The economic development of the country has given a boost to the betterment of living in Uganda. The population of Uganda is a mixture of various ethnic groups like the Baganda, Banyakole, Basoga, Bakiga, Iteso, Langi, Acholi, Bagisu, Lugbara, Bunyoro and others. These ethnic groups maintain their form of lifestyle, easy and simplistic.
The cities especially the capital Kampala bustles with life. The living in Uganda cities is like any other major cities of the world. The people living in Uganda cities lead a fast paced life, quite a contrasting picture to the lifestyle of the small towns and villages.
