Botswana

Although vast, semi-arid and empty, Botswana has prospered since independence and is comparatively well off in relation to its neighbours - especially those to the north.  The economy relies on mining (Botswana supplies de Beers with over 50% of its diamonds), cattle ranching and tourism.  Although relations with South Africa have been strained Botswana is heavily reliant on that country for its rail, air and sea links.
The Okavango Delta in the north west of the country is a major attraction, the water levels rising and falling annually with the rivers originating in the Angolan highlands.  Perennially short of water, the word for Botswana's currency unit (one of the strongest currencies in Africa) is the same as the word for rain.
