Namibia never fails to enthral its visitors, to charge the fantasies and imaginations of narrators in their efforts to aptly describe the many-facetted grandeur and harsh splendour of this desert country.
So many words have been written and told, and still poets do not tire to invent attributes to do justice to its unique, ever-varying magnificence.
Namibia is known for its contrasting landscapes. The desolate Namib Desert is said to be the oldest in the world, with its high dunes and awe-inspiring sense of space
According to the latest population census (2001) Namibia has 1 826 million people. The population density is one of the lowest in the world at less than 2 people per km?
The People of Namibia
According to the latest population census (2001) Namibia has 1 826 million people. The population density is one of the lowest in the world at less than 2 people per km?.
The Owambo is the largest population group, and live in the central North of Namibia in the four O-regions: Omusati, Oshana, Ohangwena and Oshikoto. The Kwanyama group is the largest, followed by Ndonga, Kwambi, Ngandyela, Kwaluudhi and Mbalanhu. They practice a mixed economy of agriculture and animal husbandry, dressmaking, woodcarving, pottery and basketry.
Forming the border between Namibia and Angola for more than 400km is the Okavango River, lifeline of the Kavango people. They consist of five tribes, Kwangali, Mbunza, Shambyu, Gciriku and Mbukushu and make their living from fishing, tending cattle and cultivating sorghum, millet and maize.
The Caprivians live in the north-eastern extension of Namibia which borders on Angola, Zambia and Botswana. Their tribes are the Masubia, Mafwe, Myeyi, Matotela and Mbukushu. In addition to fishing and hunting, they keep cattle and cultivate the land.
The Herero are a pastoral cattle-breeding people who live mainly in the Omaheke region. They could be divided into the Herero proper, Ndamu-randa, Tjimba Herero, and the Mbanderu. The women are easily identified by their colourful Victorian-style dresses.
An ancient tribe of semi-nomadic pastoralists, the Himba live in scattered settlements throughout the Kunene region. The women are noted for their unusual sculptural beauty, enhanced by intricate hairstyles and traditional adornments.
The Damara, one of the oldest cultural groups in the country, live in the Erongo region. They cultivate corn and vegetables, while livestock production has also become an important source of income.
The only true descendants of the Khoikoi in Namibia are the Nama, who live in the Karas and Hardap regions. They have a natural talent for music, poetry and prose.
The Topnaars are a hardy group of Nama people who live on the banks of the Kuiseb River, tending their sheep and goats in this harsh environment. Poems and praise of the narra melon form part of the Topnaar culture.
In 1868 the Basters moved to Namibia from the Cape, where they finally settled at the hot-water springs called Rehoboth. While they are traditionally stock and crop farmers, many of them are involved in other sectors, especially the building trade.
Namibia's Coloureds have their origins in the Cape, and live mainly in Windhoek, Keetmanshoop, L?deritz, Kalkveld and Karasburg.
The Tswanas are the smallest cultural group, living in the Gobabis district. They consist of the Tlharo, Tlhaping and Bangologa tribes and are involved in farming.
The Bushmen or San people, hunter-gatherers occupy the remote areas in eastern Namibia and Kalahari. They are great storytellers, and express themselves eloquently in music, mimicry and dance.
Roughly 100 000 White Namibians of European descent currently live in Namibia. The majorities live in the urban, central and southern parts of the country and are involved in commerce, manufacturing, farming, professional services and the civil service.
Weather in Namibia
Summer (October-April) Average interior temperatures range from 20C-34C during the day. Temperatures above 40C are often recorded in the extreme north and south of the country.
The coast influenced by the cold Benguela current, boasts a relatively stable range of 15C-25C. Heavy fog is fairly common at night. Humidity is generally very low in most parts of Namibia, but can reach as high as 80% in the extreme north during summer.
The rainy season is from October - April. The average annual rainfall varies from less than 50mm along the coast to 350mm in the central interior and 700mm in the Caprivi. The sporadic rains do not affect road travel significantly, however, tourists should exercise caution when crossing or camping in riverbeds during the rainy season, as flash foods are a common occurrence. Winter (May-September) Temperatures in the interior range from 18C-25C during the day. Below freezing temperatures and ground frost are common at night
Namibia's Politics & History
Bismarck proclaimed Namibia a German protectorate in 1884. The conquest of German South West Africa by South African forces during World War 1 resulted in its subsequent administration by South Africa under a 1920 League of Nations mandate. A war between the occupying South African forces and the SWAPO (South-west Africa People's Organisation) liberation movement started in 1966.
In 1989 the implementation of United Nations Resolution 435 for free and fair elections resulted in SWAPO coming to power. On March 21, 1990. Dr. Sam Nujoma, was instated as the country's first president.
Namibia is ruled by a Multiparty Parliament and has a democratic Constitution that is highly regarded by the international community. The Government's policy of national reconciliation and unity embraces the concepts of tolerance, respect for differing political views, and racial and ethnic harmony.

Accommodation
The Namibian Tourism Accommodation Industry is rich in diversity, ranging from one- to four-star hotels, pensions, guest-farms, lodges, restaurants, rest camps, Bed & Breakfasts and Self-catering establishments. The wide variety of establishments across Namibia enable tourists to make their choices based not only on the prices or rates charged, but also on the level of infrastructure, services and added activities offered by the establishments. It is fair to say, that the Namibian Tourism Accommodation Industry has something to offer for every taste and pocket.
As representative of the commercial tourism accommodation sector, the Hospitality Association of Namibia has set as one of its most important principles and goals the establishment and maintenance of internationally acceptable standards of quality at the various hospitality establishments. Quality, service and value for money are the issues that tourists take into consideration, when choosing their holiday destination. Competition is growing and H.A.N continuously strives to inform its members of the importance of maintaining a high standard, both in terms of the infra-structure as well as the customer service provided at the establishments.
Only satisfied tourists will consider visiting this country a second and third time and a tourist can be satisfied, if he is made to feel, that his stay in Namibia was worth every cent that he paid, irrespective of whether this tourist was a backpacker or an executive traveler. H.A.N?s hope for the future is that all hospitality establishments realise the importance of striving for excellence.
Visit the HAN Website to see the variety of establishments and services offered. The site also reflects those establishments who have in the past gained the Award of Excellence, for quality of service offered to the international and national travellers.

The Country - Topography
Namibia is known for its contrasting landscapes. The desolate Namib Desert is said to be the oldest in the world, with its high dunes and awe-inspiring sense of space. The central plateau, with its thorn bush savannah and rugged mountains, rising abruptly from the plains, gives way to the majestic Fishriver Canyon in the south. In the north of the country, landscapes range from dense bush and open plains of the great Etosha Pan, to woodland savannah and lush vegetation. Dinosaur footprints preserved in sandstone, prehistoric rock art, the ancient fossil plant, Welwitschia mirabilis, all bare witness to the timelessness of this country.
Namibia is divided into 3 distinct topographical regions:
Namib Desert
Long narrow coastal desert 50km-140km, extending along the entire coastline and interspersed with dune belts, dry riverbeds and deeply eroded canyons.
Central Plateau
Runs from North to South with an average altitude between 1000-2000 m. This area has breathtaking landscapes, rugged mountain, rocky outcrops, sand filled valleys and endless plains.
Kalahari Desert
Long vegetated dunes of red sand extend through this area. It spans dense bush covered plains north east of the Etosha Pan including the high rainfall areas of Kavango and Caprivi, tropical forest, perennial rivers and woodland savannah. Namibia is the first country in the world to include protection of the environment and sustainable utilisation of wildlife in its constitution.
National Reserves and Game Parks
Namibia's national reserves and game parks are owned by Government and managed on its behalf by the Ministry of Environment and Tourism. Since independence there has been a rapid escalation in the number and size of private conservation areas.
? The Mahango Game Reserve borders on the perennial Okavango River, and extends over 244km?.
The 32km-wide Caprivi Game Park of 5 715km? extends for about 180 km from the Okavango River to the Kwando River.

Rivers
Namibia has 5 perennial rivers, all of which delineate her borders:
Orange River (South)
Kunene, Okavango, Zambezi and Kwando rivers, forming the border between eastern Caprivi and Botswana in the North.
Fish and Nosob river
Kuiseb, Swakop, Omaruru, Hoarusib, Hoanib, Ugab and Khumib rivers which drain into the Atlantic Ocean
Tsauchab
Marienflu? ,Omatako and Cuvelai. These originate from Southern Angola and empty its floodwaters into the Etosha Pan.
Flora & Fauna
Flora
The country is divided into 14 vegetation zones, ranging from variations of desert to semi-desert, shrub and forest savannahs, and woodlands of the Northeast. A world-wide botanist interest is the living fossil, Welwitschia Mirabilis, which is endemic to the Namib Desert and one of the oldest plants known to man.
Over 120 species of trees grow in Namibia ranging from the umbrella-shaped camel thorn, Acacia eroloba, to the valuable ana tree, Faidherbia albida, with its white flowers and nutritious pods, which is an important source of food for the animals of the desert. Typical trees found in the north are mopane, terminalia, marula, giant figs, baobabs, Makalani palms and timber species such as kiaat, tamboti and Transvaal teak. Common to the arid central and southern region is the distinctive kokerboom or quiver tree, Aloe dichotoma. There are approximately 200 endemic plant species in Namibia that include lithops that are popularly referred to as "flowering stones", and the Aloe asperifolia of the desert regions. Other noteworthy plants are the curious elephants foot, Adenia pecuelii, and the "halfmens", Pachypodium namaquanum, which is found in the far south near the Orange River.
Fauna
Large game species found in Namibia include elephant, rhino, giraffe and buffalo, as well as lion, leopard and cheetah. There are eight endemic mammal species - the black faced impala, gerbils and bats - while the Namib Desert is well known for endemic dune-dwellers, of which there are 30 endemic species. Endangered mammals are wild dog, black rhino, lion, puku, oribi and waterbuck. There are over 20 species of antelope ranging from the largest, the eland, to the smallest the Damara dik-dik. A wealth of small mammals, including mongoose and jackal, occur throughout the country, as well as the less common Antbear and honey badger.
Avifauna
Over 630 of the 887 bird species listed for southern Africa have been recorded in Namibia. Of these, about 500 species breed locally, while the others are migrants. Eleven species are endemic, meaning that over 75% of their total world populations are found in Namibia.
Special endemics are the Herero chat, Rockrunner, Monteiro's hornbill and Damara tern (99%). The African Fish eagle is also featured on the Namibian coat of arms. Of keen interest to visitors is the sociable weaver, which builds communal nests in which several hundreds of birds live together.
