Mauritius is the 80th nation to show up in stats ...
At least I think it's the 80th
Over the years, I may have lost count
As to where Mauritius is located on the world map?
I'm about to google it and find out for myself ...
With hopes that you're enjoying a relaxing Labor Day
Imagine my spirit smiling as thoughts of dancing with
Princess Ravi, today, tickle my heart ...
Upon Googling this tiny nation, the culture of
Mauritius proved to be exceptionally noteworthy
As this barebones excerpt below came from Wikipedia
I recommend seeking detailed information at that site:
A beach on the Mauritius Island.
Mauritius (Moris in Créole), formerly the Isle of France and Île Maurice in French, is the main island of the nation of Mauritius. It is located in the southwest of the Indian Ocean, in the heart of the Mascarene Islands, between Réunion to the west and Rodrigues to the east. The population is approximately 1.2 million inhabitants and is divided into several communities. The majority of Mauritians are crossbred with Indian (65.8% ) or Creole or mestizo (27.7%) origins.[1][2] There is also a minority of mulattoes, "white Mauritius" (2%), and Sino-Mauritians (3%). Muslim Mauritians are either Indian or Arab-Indian origin.
The capital of Mauritius is Port Louis, located in the northwest of the island. Mauritian Creoleis spoken on the island, as well as French and English.[3]
The religion in Mauritius is of a Hindu and Tamil majority (50%), with Muslim (20%), Christian (15%), and Buddhist (2%) minorities, but there is no official religion in view of the diversity of the population.
