Burkina Faso: a landlocked cultural country in West Africa
Burkina Faso is a landlocked country located in West Africa, with its capital city, Ouagadougou, being the political, economic and cultural center of the country. Cotton, peanuts and gold are the main exports of this predominantly agro-pastoral country, where agriculture accounts for the majority of the population. Despite its relatively weak economic base, Burkina Faso has a rich cultural heritage, characterized by traditional music, dance and handicrafts (such as the famous Burkinabé masks). In addition, the ruins of the ancient city of Ghana in its northern region are listed as a World Heritage Site and bear witness to the splendor of ancient West African civilization. As one of the more densely populated countries in Africa, Burkina Faso is known for its diverse ethnic cultures (e.g., Mossi, Fulani, and other ethnic groups) and its hospitable people.
