Zimbabwe – Some Geography


The name Zimbabwe comes from dzimba dzemabwe, that in Shona means houses of stone, is located in the Southern Africa (in the map is the only Bordeaux country and has the shortcut ZW). It doesn’t have a sea and is situated between the river Zambesi and the Limpopo rivers. It confines on the south side with South Africa, on the west with Botswana, on the north with Zambia and on the east with Mozambique. The capital is Harare, once known as Salisbury. The second main city is Bulawayo. The lake Kariba and the Victoria Falls, which people frequently call Vic Falls, are some of the greatest natural attractions of Zimbabwe.
