Mali: The Modern Face of an Ancient and Historic West African Country

Mali is a landlocked West African country with Bamako as its capital, a land area of about 1.24 million square kilometers and a population of about 21 million. The official language is French, and the main ethnic groups include the Bambara and Fulani, with the majority of the inhabitants practicing Islam. Historically, it was the core area of the Mali Empire, and in the 14th century Timbuktu was an important academic and trade center in Africa, with cultural heritage such as the ancient University of Sankore. The economy is predominantly agricultural, with cotton and groundnuts as its main exports, but it is also one of the world's least developed countries, facing challenges such as poverty and poor infrastructure. The security situation has been difficult in recent years due to extremist groups and armed conflicts, but the rich historical sites and the scenery of the Niger River still make it a unique human and natural attraction.
