The East African Community (EAC) was established in 1967 by the Treaty for East African Cooperation between Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. The Community of the three partner states formally came into existence on 1st December of that year. No such precise date can be set for the Community’s demise, but the middle of 1977, when the partner states failed to approve the 1977–78 budget for the Community, comes closest to it, and may be taken as the date of its demise in the legal sense. Effectively the Community came to an end earlier that year, soon after the completion by an outside authority (the Caribbean economist, William Demas) of a review of the Treaty and the submission of recommendations, when Kenya set up her own airline and Tanzania closed her border with Kenya. The Community died, therefore, well before its tenth birthday could be celebrated, and just as its new headquarters building was completed.
