17 facts you may not know about Cabo Verde:

1. Cabo Verde is an archipelago of 10 volcanic islands in the central Atlantic Ocean, about 570 kilometers off the coast of West Africa.
2. Portuguese is the official language of Cabo Verde, but Cape Verdean Creole (Kriolu) is widely spoken and considered a symbol of national identity.
3. Cabo Verde was uninhabited until the Portuguese discovered it in the 15th century. It became a crucial location for the transatlantic slave trade.
4. Cabo Verde gained independence from Portugal on July 5, 1975.
5. The country is known for its political stability and has one of the most stable democratic governments in Africa.
6. The island of Santiago is the largest and most populous island, home to the capital city, Praia.
7. Mount Fogo on the island of Fogo is an active volcano and the highest peak in Cabo Verde, standing at 2,829 meters (9,281 feet).
8. Cabo Verde is famous for its music, particularly the morna genre, which Cesária Évora popularized internationally. Morna is a soulful, melancholic music style often compared to Portuguese fado.
9. The culture of Cabo Verde is a blend of African, Portuguese, and Brazilian influences, reflected in its music, dance, and cuisine.
10. The Cabo Verdean diaspora is significant, with more people of Cape Verdean descent living abroad than in the country itself. Large communities exist in the United States, Portugal, and the Netherlands.
11. The islands have a diverse climate, ranging from arid to semi-arid, with some areas receiving very little rainfall, leading to challenges in water supply.
12. Tourism is a growing sector in Cabo Verde's economy, attracting visitors with its beautiful beaches, vibrant culture, and diverse landscapes.
13. The city of Mindelo on the island of São Vicente is known as the cultural capital of Cabo Verde, renowned for its lively music scene and annual Carnival.
14. The national dish, cachupa, is a slow-cooked stew of corn, beans, vegetables, and often fish or meat. It's considered a symbol of Cape Verdean cuisine.
15. Cabo Verde has a high literacy rate compared to other African nations, with strong emphasis on education and vocational training.
16. Cabo Verde has no permanent rivers; water is sourced from seasonal rainfall, groundwater, and desalination plants.
17. The country is investing heavily in renewable energy sources, with a goal to become 100% reliant on renewable energy by 2025. Wind and solar power are key components of this initiative.

⭐⭐ WEDNESDAY WONDERS‼️⭐⭐

Did you know that the Blue Lagoon is man-made? 🌊

It was formed as a result of the creation of a geothermal power plant that is drilling for steam and hot water 🔋

Nonetheless, the place is a beautiful and fun spa experience, and the mineral-rich waters are great for your skin 🧖

Pro-tip: Keep your hair in a bun as the water tends to dry it out 😉
