Central African Republic

The Central African Republic occupies the geographical heart of the African continent, a landlocked expanse of savanna, dense equatorial forest, and river systems that define both its ecology and its rhythms of daily life. Life here moves closely with the land — subsistence farming, fishing along the Ubangi and Sangha rivers, and trade in small market towns scattered across a country larger than France.
