text: No, this article is about a potential new country. I am very excited, I believe that merging small countries into bigger ones is the only way that could lead us to a "One World One Country" society, a society with no wars and discrimination. Big thumbs up to our East African brothers and sisters! 2001:8003:9003:1801:99C5:B2CD:5748:9DC5 (talk) 06:03, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  LoL. All countries practice discrimination. Such populous countries as Brazil, Russia and India are among leaders in this respect, although in India discrimination is determined by the traditional social structure and generally goes against the government policy. Or the IPv6 hopes that there is no discrimination in the PRC, perhaps? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 06:58, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  At least we can hope for a world without wars and discrimination. I think this proposal to merge not 2, but 6 countries is a good start. I am sad to see so many small countries breaks away from bigger ones and makes the world less united. 2001:8003:9003:1801:99C5:B2CD:5748:9DC5 (talk) 07:24, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

message: Per the Kenyan government, EAC national is the actual demonym/nationality for this federation: "most of the staff is to be of Kenyan/ EAC nationality or have resident status" . Middayexpress (talk) 13:53, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you know what the word demonym means?  "EAC national" isn't a demonym.  One could say that they are a "US national" or a "US citizen" or a "US resident", but that doesn't make any of these a demonym.  If you want to claim that "EAC national" is the demonym, you need a source which supports this, not just happens to use the phrase.  TDL (talk) 17:45, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

message: South Sudan is highlighted on the map in the infobox as being a member of the East African Federation, and it is mentioned in EAF's entry in the List of proposed state mergers article, but it is not mentioned anywhere else in this article. Nowhere does this article mention it as a supporting nation. WHy the discrepancy? --1990'sguy (talk) 23:50, 24 July 2016 (UTC)

message: Currently the opening paragraph of the Features section of the article claims that the proposed country would be both the 2nd and the 4th largest country in Africa and both the 10th and 17th largest in the world.

message: I've added a "citation needed" for the currency code being EAS. If it was EAS, then the country code for the EAF would be EA. But EA is currently Ceuta and Melilla, and we don't know whether it'll be reassigned for the EAF. Or have I missed something? Marnanel (talk) 16:47, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

There is talk of the Democratic Republic of the Congo joining the East African Federation in the future. I wonder how serious is this proposal? Congo DR is a huge country, if it also joins the EAF, then Africa woud finally have its own dominant power which has direct access to both the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. 110.145.30.41 (talk) 09:57, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Problem: The  touches the Atlantic Ocean, so it probably won’t join the federation, but I think that  would be a likely candidate. With those set in mind, I think the DRC should leave the East African Community. 2601:C6:D281:6710:816A:D36D:8E14:DF87 (talk) 13:51, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
