Unlikely, south Africa is quite an outlier in Africa. Southern Africa is usually taken to include it an lots of other countries (eg. Tanzania). That as a group, is jot an outlier within Africa.

Tanzania is actually part of Eastern Africa and not Southern Africa. But you are right, Southern Africa constitutes a group of a countries while South Africa is a single country.

Tanzania can be in both Southern and Eastern Africa. It's in the SADC ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_African_Development_Co... ).

These terms are just descriptions, there are no hard, objective, definitive rules about it.
