As its name suggests, South Africa is situated on the southernmost tip of Africa. The country is known for its long struggle against Apartheid, which ended in 1994. Its history is complex, including interactions between indigenous societies and diverse migrations.
Like many African countries, South Africa is home to various people groups, cultures, and religious beliefs, earning it the nickname “Rainbow Nation”. Geographically rich and varied, it encompasses eight different biomes and a wide range of plant, mammal, and bird species.
