An important city in the Samatenga Province of Burkina Faso's North-Central Region, about 100 kilometers north of the capital city of Ouagadou, Korjai is a central hub of agricultural and commercial activity in the region. The city is surrounded by the vast Sahelian grasslands, which are rich in millet, maize, peanuts and other crops, and the local market is active and is a distribution center for agricultural products in the surrounding area. The inhabitants of Korje are mostly Mossi, with a strong culture of traditional crafts and fairs, and regular fairs that attract people from neighboring villages. Despite its relatively simple infrastructure, as a key node connecting the countryside to the regional economy, Korje plays an important role in Burkina Faso's national development and serves as a window into the life of the local agro-pastoral society.
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.
