Facts about Cape Verde

  • The airport on the smallest island of Bravo was built in 1992, but closed as early as 2004 due to dangerous landing conditions and high winds.
  • The state includes 18 islands, and all of them are not similar to each other. The islands of the country are divided into two groups: Leeward (São Vicenti, Santo Antão, Santa Lucia, São Nicolau, Boavista and Sal) and Leeward (Brava, Santiago, Mayu, Fogo). The other islands are small and of little interest.
  • Traditional dwellings in the Cape Verdean countryside are "funcu". They are built of volcanic lava, the use of cement is not common.
  • The islands are home to endemic species of birds and reptiles: the Borna heron, the Alauda razae skylark, the Iago sparrow, and the Cape Verdean giant gecko. Many of these are in danger of extinction.
  • In Cape Verde, there is a great shortage of sand needed for construction on the islands. Women mine it from the ocean floor, filling huge wicker baskets and selling it at construction sites after it dries on shore. Despite a government ban, women continue this occupation to feed their families.
  • Cape Verde is made up of 18 islands, but the country's flag features only 10 stars, which corresponds to the number of inhabited islands.
  • One of the famous representatives of the country is the singer Cesaria Evora, also known as the "barefoot diva". The singer always performed barefoot, a symbolic tribute to the poverty in which her fellow countrymen lived in Cape Verde. She made a significant contribution to the development of the country, with a special emphasis on education.
