Geography Now! Mozambique

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Mozambique may be one of the best beach countries no one considers. Its rich biodiversity and geography have made it home to a low-volume, but high-quality luxury tourist industry.  However, a video resource shows how it is still reckoning with its history of colonialism and civil war. Viewers also explore the African nation's culture, geography, people, and past.
