Things to Do in Comoros

Comoros is an island nation off the coast of East Africa, in the Indian Ocean between northern Mozambique and northern Madagascar.

Comoros has endured 20 coups or attempted coups since gaining independence from France in 1975. Each island in the archipelago elected its own president and a new union president took office in May 2002.

One of the world's poorest countries, Comoros is made up of three islands that have inadequate transportation links, a young and rapidly increasing population, and few natural resources.
