Oahab is a small city on the eastern border of Burkina Faso, near the border with Niger, under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Region. Located in the Sahelian eco-region, it has an arid climate, with a remarkable savannah climate, less than 800 millimeters of annual precipitation, and distinct wet and dry seasons. The local economy is dominated by traditional agriculture and animal husbandry, with residents mostly engaged in millet and sorghum cultivation and goat and sheep farming, and is a distribution center for agricultural products from neighboring villages. Despite its relatively weak infrastructure, Wahab maintains the simple appearance of a traditional West African town, with regular markets attracting people from the surrounding area to trade, and handicrafts and traditional food with local characteristics. As a regional transportation node, it connects Burkina Faso to Niger for part of its cross-border trade and serves as a window into local tribal culture and Sahelian village life.
Sevan is a small town in the Armenian province of Gegharkunik, located in the eastern part of the country on the shores of Lake Sevan, about 66 kilometers from the capital city of Yerevan.

The town boasts historical monuments such as the Sevan Monastery, a 9th-century monastery situated on a peninsula overlooking the lake, which attracts many tourists and pilgrims.
