IVORY COAST, THE AFRICAN MELTING POT

A patchwork of ethnic groups and traditions

Synopsis

Ivory Coast is one of the most important states in West Africa, sharing borders with 5 countries including Ghana, Mali and Burkina Faso.

From its astonishing maritime front made of lagoons to the more arid regions of the north, its ideal situation as a crossroads has blended its population and ways of lives.

Ivory Coast is a country where languages are as numerous as ethnic groups, where kings are much more than curiosities and where celebrations and dances unveil a vibrant and colorful culture.
