Mauritius is a really neat place!
Look at me !
Facts:
1) We were one of the only islands to have dodo birds!
2) My main languages are Creole, Bhojpuri, French and English.
3) The highest point I have is formed by Mont Piton, at 828 m.
4) The University of Mauritius was founded in 1972.
5) After I abolished slavery, indentured labor from India was made to work in the plantations.
6) I am one of the richest as well as the most developed countries in Africa.
7) My national flower is the Trochetia Boutoniana (Boucle d'Oreille).
8) The currency I use is Mauritian rupee.
9) On my flag, red recalls the struggle for independence. Blue stands for the Indian Ocean. Yellow expresses hope for a bright future. Green represents agriculture and vegetation!
10) This is my coat of arms.
