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.
Konjic is a city in the northwestern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), located in the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton, near the Croatian border. The city is located in the upper valley of the Neretva River, surrounded by the Dinara Mountains, and is known for its beautiful nature and mild continental climate.
Konjic has a long history, having been an important administrative center during the Ottoman Empire, and the old town retains a large number of Islamic buildings from the 16th-17th centuries, such as stone bridges, mosques and bell towers. The area is known for its multiculturalism, with mosques and Catholic churches coexisting, traditional crafts (such as metalworking) and annual cultural festivals attracting many visitors.
The economy is based on agriculture, wood processing and tourism. The surrounding mountains are suitable for outdoor activities such as hiking and skiing, with Mount Plenj being a popular destination. Konjic is also a transportation hub to famous BiH attractions such as the Blagaj Mosque and the Mostar Old Bridge, and ecotourism has grown rapidly in recent years.
