Terai Angle is a small settlement in the Matabeleland North province of Zimbabwe, located in the western part of the country, near the border area with Botswana. The area is based on agriculture and livestock farming as the mainstay of the economy, and is surrounded by a typical African savannah landscape.
Located in the arid western part of Zimbabwe, Teraiangere has a savannah climate with low annual rainfall. The terrain is dominated by flat grasslands with scattered low hills around, and the natural vegetation is characterized by drought-tolerant shrubs and grasslands.
The local people live on subsistence farming, mainly growing crops such as corn and sorghum, and raising livestock such as cattle and sheep. Due to the remoteness of the area, the infrastructure is relatively simple, the pace of life is slow, and a strong traditional community culture is maintained.
Teraiangere is connected to the main towns of Zimbabwe by regional roads and is about 100 kilometers from the provincial capital city of Lupane. Its border location makes it one of the potential hubs for civil trade between Zimbabwe and Botswana.
