The Tsavo Man-Eaters were a pair of man-eating Tsavo lions responsible for the deaths of a number of construction workers on the Kenya-Uganda Railway from March through December 1898.

Algeria is a transit and, to a lesser extent, destination country for men and women subjected to trafficking in persons, specifically forced labor and forced prostitution.
 Most commonly, sub-Saharan African men and women enter Algeria voluntarily but illegally, often with the assistance of smugglers, for the purpose of traveling to Europe.
 Some become victims of trafficking: men may be forced into unskilled labor and women into prostitution to repay smuggling debts.
 Criminal networks of sub-Saharan nationals in southern Algeria facilitate this irregular migration by arranging transportation, forged documents, and promises of employment.
 Reliable statistics on the number of potential victims are not available from the government or non-governmental organizations (NGOs).
 One NGO estimates that the populations most vulnerable to trafficking include between 10,000 and 15,000 illegal sub-Saharan African migrants.

The Ghost and the Darkness is a 1996 American historical adventure film directed by Stephen Hopkins and starring Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas.
 The screenplay was written by William Goldman.
 The story is a fictionalized account of the Tsavo Man-Eaters, two lions that attacked and killed workers at Tsavo, Kenya, during the building of the Uganda-Mombasa Railway in East Africa in 1898.
The history of Puerto Ricans of African descent begins with free African men, known as "libertos," who accompanied the Spanish Conquistadors in the invasion of the island.
 The Spaniards enslaved the Taínos (the native inhabitants of the island), many of whom died as a result of new infectious diseases and the Spaniards' oppressive colonization efforts.
 Spain's royal government needed laborers and began to rely on slavery to staff their mining and fort-building operations.
 The Crown authorized importing enslaved West Africans.
 As a result, the majority of the African peoples who entered Puerto Rico were part of the forced migration of the Atlantic slave trade, and came from many different cultures and peoples of the African continent.
21 South African Infantry Battalion is an infantry battalion of the South African Army.

Sailor Moon R: The Movie, known in Japan as Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon R: The Movie, is a 1993 Japanese anime fantasy film directed by Kunihiko Ikuhara and written by Sukehiro Tomita based on the "Sailor Moon" manga series written by Naoko Takeuchi.
 The film takes its name from the second arc of the "Sailor Moon" anime, "Sailor Moon R", as Toei Company distributed it around the same time.
 The events portrayed seem to take place somewhere in the very end of the series, as Chibiusa knows about the identities of the Sailor Guardians, the characters are in the present rather than the future, and Mamoru and Usagi are back together.
 The film centers on the arrival of an alien named Fiore on Earth, who has a past with Mamoru and wishes to reunite with him.
 Unfortunately, Fiore is being controlled by an evil flower called Xenian Flower, forcing Usagi and her friends to save Mamoru and the Earth from destruction.
