Features: Botswana is an inland country in southern Africa. Before its independence in 1966, it was a British colony and one of the 25 least developed countries in the world. After independence, the people of Botswana utilized their abundant mineral resources, vast and lush "sweet grass" pastures, and a diverse and numerous wildlife population, demonstrating their ingenuity and transforming a poor and backward nation into a middle-income country over more than 30 years, earning praise from the world. The author of this book is a diplomat from the Chinese Embassy in Botswana. The book is well-researched and provides an excellent overview of Botswana.
