關於這本電子書

Burkina Faso is a landlocked country in West Africa. It shares borders with six other countries including Niger, Mali, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, and Benin. It has a population of approximately 20 million people with over 60 different ethnic groups. The official language is French, although many other African languages are spoken such as Moore, Dioula, and Fulfulde. Burkina Faso is known for its diverse culture and historical landmarks. The country has several natural landmarks including the Karfiguela Waterfall, Pama-Yanga Wildlife Reserve, and the Sacred Grove of Kpenkpen. The country is also known for its festivals such as FESPACO, which is a biennial event showcasing African cinema. Burkina Faso is one of the poorest countries in the world with a largely agricultural economy. Despite the challenges, Burkina Faso is working towards economic development through programs such as microfinance and ecotourism.
