Features: Malawi is an inland country in southeastern Africa, with a long and narrow terrain. The Great Rift Valley runs through it from north to south, and it is home to Lake Malawi, the third-largest lake in Africa, earning it the nickname "Land of Lakes." Malawi is a traditional agricultural country. For a long time, due to weak infrastructure and the impact of natural disasters and international economic factors, its economy has faced difficulties. In recent years, the Malawi government has focused on developing the economy to escape poverty, implementing a series of reform measures that have led to significant economic growth.
