Swaziland

The Kingdom of Swaziland is a small, landlocked country on the African continent, and is bordered mainly by South Africa, though it shares a partial border with Mozambique to its east. As the last absolute monarchy in Africa, Swaziland is known for its cultural and artistic traditions, as well as diverse geography and big game parks, each of which draws tourists to the country annually. Its economy has been traditionally dependent on agriculture and manufacturing, but tourism as an economic activity has steadily grown in the last 20 years, and a strengthening diplomatic relationship with South Africa provides the needed infrastructure to continue to grow in the future.
