Mozambique is a southeastern African nation located on the Indian Ocean. It is bordered by Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, and Swaziland. The capital and largest city is Maputo.
Mozambique has a population of over 29 million people, with the majority of the population being of Bantu origin. The official language is Portuguese and the majority of the population is Christian, with a small Muslim minority.
Mozambique is a tropical country with a warm climate, and a diverse terrain. The country is mostly low-lying, with plateaus and mountains in the north and south, and a wide coastal plain. The Zambezi River and its tributaries form the main river system of the country.
Mozambique has a long history of human habitation, with evidence of human presence dating back to the Stone Age. During the 15th century, the country was colonized by the Portuguese, who brought with them Christianity and the Portuguese language. Mozambique gained independence from Portugal in 1975, after a long struggle for freedom.
Since independence, Mozambique has experienced a period of civil war and economic decline. The civil war lasted from 1977 to 1992, and resulted in the deaths of millions of people. Since the end of the war, the country has been rebuilding and developing, and has seen significant improvements in its economy and infrastructure.
Mozambique is now an important economic partner for its neighboring countries, and is a member of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). It is also a member of the African Union (AU) and the United Nations (UN). The country is a major producer of coal and natural gas, and is a major exporter of seafood. Tourism is also an important industry in Mozambique, with its beautiful beaches and wildlife reserves.
