WHAT MAKES
SOUTH AFRICA

imgrs

SOUTH AFRICA

South Africa is a very unique country. It
has 11 official languages, many cultures
and religions and it’s inhabitants are all of
many interesting backgrounds and
religions (hence the nickname “The
Rainbow Nation”).

SOUTH AFRICA

From it’s beautiful sugar cane fields, to it’s
magnificent stadiums, from it’s bustling
cities to it’s flash casinos, South Africa is
my home and if i may say so myself, it is
unique, beautiful and a great place to live.
I’m proud to be South African!!!!
