ABOUT SOUTH AFRICA
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Republic of South Africa is a parliamentary democracy comprising nine provinces which is
located at the southern tip of Africa, with a 2,798 kilometres coastline on the Atlantic and Indian
Oceans. To the north lies Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe; to the east are Mozambique and
Swaziland; while Lesotho is an enclave surrounded by South African territory. South Africa is known
for its diversity in cultures and languages. Eleven official languages are recognised in the
constitution. Two of these languages are of European origin: Afrikaans, a language which originated
mainly from Dutch that is spoken by the majority of white and Coloured South Africans, and South
African English. Though English is commonly used in public and commercial life, it is only the fifth
most-spoken home language. South Africa is a constitutional democracy in the form of a
parliamentary republic; unlike most parliamentary republics, the positions of head of state and head
of government are merged in a parliament-dependent President. It is one of the founding members
of the African Union, and has the largest economy of all the members. It is also a founding member
of the United Nations and NEPAD.
SOUTH AFRICAN FLAG
The current flag of the Republic of South Africa was adopted on 27 April 1994, at the beginning of
the 1994 general election, to replace the flag that had been used since 1928. The new national flag,
designed by Herald Frederick Brownell, was chosen to represent the new democracy. The flag has
horizontal bands of red (on the top) and blue (on the bottom), of equal width, separated by a central
green band which splits into a horizontal "Y" shape, the arms of which end at the corners of the hoist
side (and follow the flag's diagonals). The Y embraces a black isosceles triangle from which the
arms are separated by narrow yellow bands; the red and blue bands are separated from the green
band and its arms by narrow white stripes. The stripes at the fly end are in the 5:1:3:1:5 ratio.

CAPE TOWN
Cape Town (Afrikaans: Kaapstad; Xhosa: iKapa) is the second-most populous city in South Africa,
and the largest in land area, forming part of the City of Cape Town metropolitan municipality. It
is the provincial capital and primate city of the Western Cape, as well as the legislative capital of
South Africa, where the National Parliament and many government offices are located. The city
is famous for its harbour as well as its natural setting in the Cape floral kingdom, including such
well-known landmarks as Table Mountain and Cape Point. Cape Town is also Africa's most popular
tourist destination. Located on the shore of Table Bay, Cape Town was originally developed by
the Dutch East India Company as a victualling (supply) station for Dutch ships sailing to Eastern
Africa, India, and the Far East. Jan van Riebeeck's arrival on 6 April 1652 established the first
permanent European settlement in South Africa. Cape Town quickly outgrew its original purpose as
the first European outpost at the Castle of Good Hope, becoming the economic and cultural hub of
the Cape Colony. Until the Witwatersrand Gold Rush and the development of Johannesburg, Cape
Town was the largest city in South Africa. Today it is one of the most multicultural cities in the
world, reflecting its role as a major destination for immigrants and expatriates to South Africa.
JOHANNESBURG
Johannesburg also known as Jozi, Jo'burg or Egoli, is the largest city in South Africa, by population.
Johannesburg is the provincial capital of Gauteng, the wealthiest province in South Africa, having the
largest economy of any metropolitan region in Sub-Saharan Africa. The city is one of the 40 largest
metropolitan areas in the world, and is also the world’s largest city not situated on a river, lake, or
coastline. While Johannesburg is not officially one of South Africa’s three capital cities, it does house
the Constitutional Court, South Africa’s highest court. The city is the source of a large-scale gold and
diamond trade, due to its location on the mineral-rich Witwatersrand range of hills. Johannesburg is
served by O.R. Tambo International Airport, the largest and busiest airport in Africa and a gateway
for international air travel to and from the rest of Southern Africa.
PRETORIA
Pretoria is a city located in the northern part of Gauteng Province, South Africa. It is one of the
country’s three capital cities, serving as the executive (administrative) and de facto national capital;
the others are Cape Town, the legislative capital, and Bloemfontein, the judicial capital. Pretoria is
popularly known as the Jacaranda City due to the enormous number of Jacaranda trees planted in
streets, parks and gardens. In flowering time, the city appears blue/purple in colour when seen from
the nearby hills because of all the Jacaranda trees. The time of year the Jacarandas bloom in
Pretoria coincides with the year-end exams at the University of Pretoria. Legend has it that if a flower
from the Jacaranda tree drops on your head, you will pass all your exams.

About Zimbabwe
General Information
Zimbabwe (officially the Republic of Zimbabwe and formerly Southern Rhodesia, Rhodesia, the
Republic of Rhodesia, and Zimbabwe Rhodesia) is a landlocked country located in the southern part
of the continent of Africa, between the Zambezi and Limpopo rivers. It is bordered by South Africa
to the south, Botswana to the southwest, Zambia to the northwest and Mozambique to the east.
Zimbabwe has three official languages: English, Shona (a Bantu language), and Ndebele (also a
Bantu language). Zimbabwe began as the British crown colony of Southern Rhodesia, created from
land held by the British South Africa Company.
Zimbabwe Flag
The flag of Zimbabwe was adopted on April 18, 1980. The soapstone bird featured on the flag
represents a statuette of a bird found at the ruins of Great Zimbabwe. The bird symbolises the history
of Zimbabwe; the red star beneath it symbolises the revolutionary struggle for liberation and peace.
VICTORIA FALLS
Victoria Falls is an astonishing sight, the result of a 1.7km-wide stretch of the Zambezi River falling
into a crack in a basalt plateau and being crunched in a narrow gorge. In 1855 explorer David
Livingstone presumed to name Victoria Falls after his homeland’s monarch, but its local name
is Mosi-oa-Tunya (Smoke That Thunders).

trees, knob thorns, marula and mopane trees underneath which lurk the Big Five, the Little Five
(buffalo weaver, elephant shrew, leopard tortoise, ant lion and rhino beetle), the birding Big Six
(ground hornbill, kori bustard, lappet-faced vulture, martial eagle, pel’s fishing owl and saddle-bill

Chapman’s Peak Drive is affectionately known as “Chappies” and is a must for anyone who is

mountains rising above you. The twists and curves in the road seem endless and it is a
photographer’s dream. It is a paradise for motorists, sightseers, picnickers, runners, hikers and bikers
(both the motorised and the manual varieties). The 9km route, with its 114 curves, skirts the rocky
coastline of Chapman’s Peak (593m), which is the southerly extension of Constantiaberg and is a
great hike for the energetically inclined. The drive offers stunning 180° views with many areas along

The Cape Point Ostrich Farm was established in 1996 and turned into an ostrich breeding farm.
You are most welcome to join them on a guided tour of the farm. Their well-trained team will be

Boulder Penguins (Simons Town)
See a breeding colony of African penguins at close range at Boulders. These flightless birds roam
around the area freely, so you can get close to them, but please don’t disturb them. They can bite –
a warning sign is when they move their heads from side to side. The Boulders colony started in 1983
and is one of very few mainland penguin colonies. These fast-swimming, deep-diving, braying birds
have thrived in their protected home.
