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.

The town retains a 19th-century Orthodox church, Ottoman-style buildings and a nature reserve along the Danube, which attracts a small number of eco-tourists.

Transportation Mahmudia, which is connected to the capital Bucharest (about 120 km) and the city of Giurgiu via the national highway, is a small, quiet town with a slow pace of life, characterized by riverside scenery and historical monuments.
