The late 19th century China venture into the African continent. The inadequacy of resources and monetary funds in Africa created a gap for external investment and a relationship that still exists at present. Notable investments by the People's Republic of China into the African continent started in the 1980s. Despite this early onset of China on African nations, the assets in Africa primarily grew from 2000. Economic ties between the African countries and the People's Republic of China grew strong due to numerous loans given to the African nations by China. These funds improved the existing and built new modern infrastructures and African economies. The millennium has seen the Chinese government pump billions into several infrastructures and technological advancements into the African continent. This paper overview on background China-Africa relations, model development in Africa, technology transportation, trade between China-Africa and major challenge for them.
