It is located in the southeast of the country, about 200 kilometers from the economic capital Abidjan, near the border with Ghana. The name of the city means "I can't take it anymore" and is derived from the story of the historical migration of the local Akan people.

It is surrounded by the tributaries of the Comoé River, forming a fertile agricultural basin, and is known as the "Cocoa Capital" of Côte d'Ivoire.

The city's economy is based on cocoa cultivation and trade, and it has a large market for agricultural products. The city retains a strong traditional Akan culture, with annual royal festivals and a mix of colonial French and modern African architecture.

Overview of Sao Tome and Principe (note on "Java")

São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
