Mauritania
Mauritania, three
times the size of Arizona, is bounded on the North by
Western Sahara and Algeria, on the east by Mali, on the
south by Mali and Senegal, and on the West by the Atlantic
Ocean.
The county has a total
of 1,021,000 sq km (398,000 sq mi)
One of the largest
country in North Africa, the country is a mix of desert and
ocean. The beaches on the west coast are a worthy break from
the interior city of Nouakchott, while various medieval
sites, including chinguetti, offer amazing views of ancient
buildings, some of which are considered to be national
symbols.
Population: Two-fifths
of the population is of mixed Moor and black African
heritage. Another 30 percent of Mauritania's people are
moors (of mixed Arab and Berber ancestry), many of whom lead
nomadic existences. About 30 percent of the people are
black African farmers, who are settled in the Senegal
Valley. 3,281,634 (July 2011 est.)
Languages: Arabic
(official and national), French, Pulaar, Soninke, Wolof ,
Hassanya
Capital: Nouakchott
Music has almost no
relation to arab music. In the Maure's environment the music
is mostly influenced by music from Sudan, West Africa,
Barfamba and Sonike.
The music is the
affair of the griots, special castes and hereditary. Neither
colonization, nor the exposure to the world really changed
this fact.
Cinema: Two
Mauritanians producers became renowned outside the borders
of the country.
