TANZANIA ~ Greetings from ~

...Plenty of great views on this postcard... Same as last year, I donated some money to a charity called 'Hearts in Unity' (to buy school supplies) and then receiving a postcard written by a Tanzanian child as a thank you.... I couldn't resist this offer, and the money went to a good cause anyway ♥...Thanks a lot Muhamed a student in class five at Dar-es-Salaam.

Tanzania  is a country in East Africa within the African Great Lakes region. It is bordered by Kenya and Uganda to the north; Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west; Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique to the south; and the Indian Ocean to the east.

Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest mountain, is in northeastern Tanzania.

Tanzania is one of the poorest countries in the world. Tanzania's population  is diverse, composed of several ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups.

It is a presidential constitutional republic, and since 1996, its official capital has been Dodoma, where the President's Office, the National Assembly, and some government ministries are located. Dar es Salaam, the former capital, retains most government offices and is the country's largest city, principal port, and leading commercial centre.
