About Rwanda
Rwanda is a small landlocked country in east central Africa,
closely tied to Burundi.
Countries neighbouring Rwanda are: Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi and Democratic Republic of Congo.

Although Rwanda has no coastline as such, the west of the country
does have access to Lake Kivu.
Rwanda has no railways but is linked by road to the Uganda-Kenya
railway system. Most of Rwanda's imports and exports are routed through the port of
Mombasa, Kenya.
Weather in Africa:
Local weather forecasts for destinations around Africa.
About half of the world's mountain gorillas are estimated to live
in the Virunga Mountains of northern Rwanda.
Dr. Dian Fossey set up a fund in 1978 to study mountain gorillas and
protect them from poachers. This dedicated work eventually cost the American zoologist her
own life.
The capital of Rwanda is situated in the centre of the country,
just south of the equator. Its altitude of 1,829 m. gives the city a mild climate all year
round.
A trunk road connects Kigali with Burundi to the south and Uganda to the north.
Kigali was part of German East Africa from 1899 to 1916. After Word
War I Belgium were given a mandate over the Territory of Ruanda-Urundi.
When the trust territory was divided in 1962 to form the independent
nations of Rwanda and Burundi, Kigali became the capital of Rwanda.
