Jimmy Carter was the first U.S. president to make a state visit to sub-Saharan Africa .
He made 43 more trips to the continent after his presidency.
"For too long our country ignored Africa ," Carter told the Democratic National Committee in his first year as president.
The African continent, a booming region with a population rivaling China 's, is where his legacy remains most evident.
Carter often said he was determined to outlive the last guinea worm infecting the human race.
Once affecting millions of people, the parasitic disease has nearly been eliminated.
Carter arranged a four-month "guinea worm cease-fire" in Sudan in 1995 so that The Carter Center could reach almost 2,000 endemic villages.
