Namibia

Africa
Namibia is an emerging independent nation with many contrasts. It's located on the far southwestern coast of Africa and is home to 1.67 million people. The capital city is Windhoek, the currency is the Namibian Dollar and the official language is English..

The country is arid, with very little annual rainfall. The Kalahari Desert rings its eastern border with Botswana. In Namib-Naukluft Park, sands dunes exceed 1,000 feet in height. Home to the world's largest uranium mine, it also produces large quantities of diamonds, lead and cadmium.
