MALI
Mali is a landlocked West African country. The country is renowned for its diverse cultures and rich history. The majority of Mali's population is engaged in agriculture, but the country also has significant deposits of gold and other minerals. Mali is home to several breathtaking natural wonders, including the Sahara desert and the Niger river. However, the country has faced challenges recently, including a military coup in 2020 and ongoing conflict between government forces and rebels in the north. With UNESCO World Heritage Sites and a welcoming population, Mali remains a fascinating destination with much to offer for visitors interested in exploring its unique culture and history.
