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.

Brava, Somalia: The "White City" on the shores of the Indian Ocean
Brava, a coastal city in the Lower Shabelle region of southern Somalia, bordering the Indian Ocean, is known as "La White City" (White City), named after the white limestone used in its historical buildings. As one of the oldest ports in East Africa, it was once an important hub for Somali trade with Arabia and Persia, and has retained its distinctive Swahili architecture, blending Somali, Arab and Portuguese cultures. The city's narrow lanes and ancient mosques tell of a prosperous history dating back to the 14th century, and although tourism has been on the wane in recent years due to the regional situation, its rich cultural heritage and warm Indian Ocean coastline continue to attract explorers. This small seaside town with its diverse civilizations is a vivid microcosm of Somalia's history and flavour.
