Overview of Mozambique

Mozambique is located in southeastern Africa, bordering the Indian Ocean to the east and Zimbabwe and South Africa to the west, with the capital city of Maputo as the political and economic center. The official language is Portuguese and the culture is a blend of indigenous African and Portuguese colonial influences. The economy is based on agriculture, with cashew exports among the highest in the world, and natural gas development has become an emerging growth point in recent years. The country has 2,600 kilometers of coastline, with natural attractions such as the Bazaruto Archipelago and rich biodiversity. As a former Portuguese colony, after independence in 1975 and reconstruction through civil war, it is now politically stable and is actively attracting foreign investment to develop infrastructure and energy industry, which is one of the countries with great potential in Africa.
