Botswana /bɒtˈswɑːnə/, officially the Republic of Botswana (Tswana: Lefatshe la Botswana), is a landlocked country located in Southern Africa. The citizens refer to themselves as Batswana (singular: Motswana). Formerly the British protectorate of Bechuanaland, Botswana adopted its new name after becoming independent within the Commonwealth on 30 September 1966. Since then, it has maintained a strong tradition of stable representative democracy, with a consistent record of uninterrupted democratic elections.
Botswana is topographically flat, with up to 70 percent of its territory being the Kalahari Desert. It is bordered by South Africa to the south and southeast, Namibia to the west and north, and Zimbabwe to the northeast. Its border with Zambia to the north near Kazungula is poorly defined but at most is a few hundred metres long.
A mid-sized country of just over 2 million people, Botswana is one of the most sparsely populated nations in the world. Around 10 percent of the population lives in the capital and largest city, Gaborone. Formerly one of the poorest countries in the world—with a GDP per capita of about US$70 per year in the late 1960s—Botswana has since transformed itself into one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, now boasting a GDP (purchasing power parity) per capita of about $18,825 per year as of 2015, which is one of the highest in Africa. Its high gross national income (by some estimates the fourth-largest in Africa) gives the country a modest standard of living and the highest Human Development Index of continental Sub-Saharan Africa.

The capital of the Bechuanaland Protectorate moved from Mafeking to Gaberones. When Botswana gained its independence, Lobatse was the first choice as the nation's capital. However, Lobatse was deemed too limited, and instead, a new capital city would be created next to Gaberones. please subscribe and leave a comment below and thanks for watching. Stay Blessed!
The city of Gaborone is buzzing and ever lively in the early hours of the morning around 6 am. As many make their way to work and school. In the morning traffic, there is patience and understanding between drivers though a few casualties of cars breaking down, etc. We are often taught culturally at homes as a lifestyle hack and that too a cultural norm amongst young women, to awaken early and do the due duties then. This was to allow for immense rest in the mid day, when the sun is at its peak. Out of this norm , most awaken early to begin work or school as early as possible, because the midday fills anyone with fatigue as the heat is extensive. This has grown embedded in our lifestyles and has become a part of daily life. At the hours of 7 am to 9am, one can have the savior of having brea...
