The Comoros Friendship Association donated 100 euros to support China. What does this African island country look like?

The full name of Comoros is the Union of Comoros, known as the Country of the Moon and the Country of Spice. It is an island country in Africa located in the southwest Indian Ocean. It is located at the northern entrance of the Mozambique Channel on the east side of Africa, east and west. Close to Madagascar and Mozambique. There are only four islands in the country's territory, and 800,000 people in the country live on three of the volcanic islands. So what kind of country is this?

01. The capital Moroni

Moroni has a population of only 60,000. It is as big as a small county town, and its infrastructure is basically built with China's aid. The urban construction of Moroni has the style of an Arab city, and there are many mosques and pilgrimage centers in the city. Fragrant ylang-ylang bushes can be seen everywhere in the city and suburbs of Moroni. Ylang-ylang is a kind of tree, 3 to 4 meters high, with extremely fragrant yellow flowers. The scenery is very nice. In addition, it is also a port, responsible for exporting many supplies.

02. Unusual customs, weddings are extremely luxurious

Weddings held in Comoros are extremely luxurious. Both the groom and the bride wear more than one or two dresses; They are covered with all kinds of jewelry, which can be said to be very expensive. Some people say that a wedding in Comoros generally costs more than 20,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 100,000 RMB. It's incredible that in this very poor country, there is still such a custom of spending money.

03. Uneven distribution of resources

Comoros can be said to be a big tourist country, but it has not been well developed. It has many tourist attractions such as Mayotte, Grande Comoros and volcanoes. These are very attention-grabbing. The fishery resources are abundant, but the tools are backward and the fishing volume cannot meet the country's needs. However, it has few coal resources and a weak industrial base. The advantages have not been well developed and the shortcomings have not been improved. This is one of the reasons why this country is poor.
