One of the Poorest Countries in the World: How Poor Can It Get?
There are always a few friends around who can have a leisurely few days whenever they get their salary, but they haven't lasted for a few months before hearing complaints like: 'I'm going to eat dirt this month,' 'I can't even afford to eat and pay rent each month, and some friends even say their mortgage payments this month need other ways to solve'... Do you have such people around you?
Everyone has different requirements for the quality of life. But when some people are still complaining about 'eating dirt', their place is struggling to solve the problem of subsistence, while our lives seem to be 'heaven' compared to that.
Having experienced ten years of political crises, violence and economic turmoil, the country's economy has far fallen behind, and extreme inflation has turned Zimbabwe into one of the poorest countries in the world. Not only has the economy problems, but the country's per capita life expectancy is also among the lowest in the world, with an average male life expectancy of around 37 years and a female average life expectancy of 34 years. The main problems are health and HIV/AIDS, which are major reasons for the low life expectancy. In addition, local medical facilities are very poor, making it difficult to get treatment.
Due to the severe devaluation of the Zimbabwean currency, the country is very poor. How poor is it? It may be beyond your imagination. It is said that:
Most people have never bought a few pieces of clothing in their lifetime
Almost 99% of people in the country can't afford to drink Coke, and it costs more than a billion to buy an egg
They once released many criminals because they couldn't afford to keep them
With 2000 yuan, you can live there for 10 years+
Zimbabwe Education
Many areas in Zimbabwe are underdeveloped, and many schools are overcrowded due to a lack of learning rooms. Students often study outside the classroom, some even build a piece of cloth as a learning space, and some only draw a small blackboard, and a group of children around the teacher listen attentively,
Although here is poor, it does not affect the children's innocence and happiness, they still play and frolic happily, completely immersed in the simple world of life, and their innocent and pure smiles can touch everyone who is dissatisfied with their current life. They are simple and happy, but the children are also the future, the treasure that can escape poverty
If you happen to arrive here, Zimbabwe's animal kingdom and waterfalls are worth experiencing and feeling
Mana Pools Animal Kingdom
Zimbabwe is an animal paradise, here is the only place in Africa with lions, but it allows unrestrained hiking parks, remote location and everywhere is permeated with the wild atmosphere, there are hippos, crocodiles, zebras, elephants and lions, and if you're lucky, you might even encounter African wild dogs. These are not good guys
Victoria Falls
Zimbabwe doesn't have bustling cities and modern amusement parks, but you can't miss the spectacular Victoria Falls, a road of 1 kilometer stretches along the gorge, and a terrifying steep slope without railings, which can directly see the waterfall flowing endlessly, it's hard to imagine that this spectacular scenery is in a poor area of Africa
If you happen to see the sunset, the sunlight will refract into colorful rainbows, a beautiful scenery will make you want to take a few more pictures
