Have you heard of Burundi?
The country is known for poverty and backwardness.
Burundi, one of the poorest countries in the world, has suffered from years of civil war between tribes.
Poverty and AIDS have been rampant in the country for a long time.
Eighty per cent of the country's population lives in extreme poverty, and 57 per cent of children under the age of five are chronically malnourished.
The happiness of Burundians is among the lowest in the world.
Burundi is located on the southern side of the equator in east-central Africa, with many plateaus and mountains.
Most of it is composed of the plateau on the eastern side of the Great Rift Valley, with a land area of only 27,834 square kilometers.
Seventy per cent of the income of the Burundian people comes from agriculture.
However, due to geographical conditions and poor infrastructure, Burundi's per capita annual income is only $250.
Almost 90 per cent of Burundi's population of about 12.5 million are farmers.
Life expectancy is only 59 years, of which 97 per cent are aged 14 to 64 and only 3 per cent are aged 65 and over.
On average, a woman will have 5.5 children, but the neonatal mortality rate is as high as 5.7%.
Burundi has a higher population density, ranking third in Africa after Mauritius and Rwanda.
Burundi is also known as the "most unfortunate country", and almost all Burundians live in extreme poverty.
Unemployment in the country is exceptionally high, with an average of one in three people unemployed.
If you're lucky enough to get a job, but you'll only get $1.50 for a hard day.
And this money will support the whole family of 8 to 10 people.
There is only one asphalt road in Burundi, which is the runway of the airport.
Children here have no toys to play with, so they take local materials from the garbage dump.
Worn-out tires, chess pieces made of wine bottle caps.
Toy cars made of discarded plastic bottles can be used as toys by local children.
The precarious electricity supply has led to the fact that smartphones will not be available in Burundi as we enter 2023.
