The Republic of Madagascar is in the Indian Ocean, east of Mozambique on the mainland of Africa. The island, the fourth largest in the world, has mountains and high plateau in the center with a narrow coastal plain.
Several species of flora and fauna unique to Madagascar are endangered with soil erosion resulting from deforestation and overgrazing, desertification and water pollution.

Antananarivo, the capital and largest city in Madagascar, was founded circa 1625 by King Andrianjaka.
The name Antananarivo means “the City of the Thousand”, describing the number of soldiers assigned to guard it.
