I have assigned 198 countries a number. The countries I've chosen are the 193 members of the UN plus those recognised by at least 20 UN members. Each week I will pick a country using a random number generator and we will discuss that country.

My mum worked there seweral years and she says she was not allowed to leave the camp without security guards. That was about 10 years ago, not sure how the situation is today.

No, the idea to discus the country that's country of the week, not have me tell you about the country of the week.

If you look at Tanzania's flag the yellow and black looks like a road. With land on one side and Ocean on the other.

Not that it's your job to tell us facts, but facts could help contribute to some discussions.

Tanzania has 2 official languages, both being Swahili and English. English probably because it was once a British colony.

Africa'South highest peak,Mt. Kilimanjaro, resides in Tanzania. No doubt it gets some tourism because of this?

Tanzania is just South of kenya

The national anthem of Tanzania is "God Bless Africa". One could assume they are striving for bigger things like...the domination of Africa! Or that they view themselves as the only Africa.
