Last Updated: 2024/09/20, There are many plateaus and mountains in Burundi, most of which are composed of plateaus on the east side of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa. The average altitude of the whole country is 1600 meters, so it is called Mountain Country. Burundi can be divided into three regions according to its topography: the western plain region, which runs along the Ruzizi River, the Rift Albrtine plain region, with an altitude of 774 to 1000 m; and the central and western mountainous region, with an average altitude of 1700 m and the highest peak in Bujumbura

There are many plateaus and mountains in Burundi, most of which are composed of the plateau on the east side of the East African Rift Valley, with an average elevation of 1600 meters above sea level, which is known as the "mountain country". According to the topography, Burundi can be divided into three regions: the western plain, along the Ruzizi River, the Rift Albrtine plain, at 774 to 1000 m above sea level; the central and western mountains, with an average elevation of 1700 m, with the highest peak at Heha in the south-east of Bujumbura, 2670 m above sea level; and the east-central plateau, 1000 to 2000 m above sea level.

Hydrology

Lake Tanganyika is located on the southwest coast of Burundi, covering an area of 32900 square kilometers, with an average water depth of 700m and a maximum depth of 1455 meters. it is the second largest deepwater lake in the world after Lake Baikal in Russia.

Climate

Burundi has a subtropical and tropical climate. The lowlands of Lake Tanganyika, the western river valleys and the eastern part have a savanna climate, while the central and western regions have a tropical mountain climate. [3]

Resources

Burundi mineral deposits are mainly nickel, peat, cerium, tantalum, tin and so on. The nickel deposit is about 300 million tons and the taste is 1.5%. Peat reserves are about 500 million tons. Phosphate reserves 30.5 million tons, taste 11.1-12.6%. The limestone reserves are 2 million tons. Gold deposits are widely distributed, with large reserves in the northwest, and most of them were smuggled abroad in the 1930s. Forest coverage was 5 per cent of the land area in 1993 and was rapidly reduced to 3 per cent due to fires and deforestation. [6]

National symbol editor

Name of country

The Republic of Burundi (English: The Republic of Burundi; French: La R é publique du Burundi) is referred to as Burundi. [7]

National flag

The national flag of Burundi is rectangular and the ratio of length to width is 5:3. Two crossed white wide stripes divide the flag into four triangles, the upper and lower two are equal in red, and the left and right two are equal in green. In the center of the flag is a white circle with three red hexagonal stars with green edges in a zigzag arrangement. Red symbolizes the blood of the victims fighting for freedom, green symbolizes the desired progressive cause, and white symbolizes the existence of peace among human beings. The three stars symbolize "unity, labor and progress". At the same time, they also represent the three tribes of Burundi-Hutu, Tutsi and Tewa-who live in peace with each other and build their homes together.

Londi Coffee bears a striking resemblance to neighboring Rwanda, where coffee from the two countries is often confused. Burundian coffee is mainly grown in bourbon, with traditional wet processing of coffee cherries. Its boutique coffee is characterized by elegant sweetness and bright citrus aromas.

Burundi is a small landlocked country located at the junction of eastern and central Africa, across the Nile and Congo basins, dominated by hills and mountains, with excellent coffee-growing elevations. The history of coffee cultivation in Burundi is not long, its coffee planting industry is carried out entirely in the form of small family farms, there is a great difference in quality, and years of war and social unrest have made its coffee planting industry very chaotic. But I have to admit that it has the potential to produce high-quality coffee.
