Namibia

estimate population 1,923,800 - Capital City Windhoek

Namibia straddles the Tropic of Capricorn and is bordered by Angola, Botswana, South Africa and the Atlantic Ocean. A narrow strip in the north-eastern corner stretches between Angola and Botswana and touches Zambia.

The Namib Desert and the Kalahari Desert are barren and inhospitable, yet these have their own beauty. Some rivers to explore are the Okovango, Kunene, and Zambezi on the northern border and the Orange on Namibia's southern border.
