Description of the slide:

The first European visit to Madagascar took place in 1500, when the ship of the Portuguese traveler Diogo Dias, bound for India, deviated from the course and landed on the island. In light of the important geographical location Madagascar for the spice merchants who circled the whole of Africa, France and Britain tried to establish their outposts on the island. However, the inhospitable climate and even less hospitable natives made this task nearly impossible.

slide number 6

Description of the slide:

The climate of the island is formed by the southeast trade wind and the South Indian anticyclone. There are three climatic zones on the island: tropical monsoon climate on east coast, a temperate maritime climate in the central highlands and an arid desert climate at the southern tip of the island. The west coast is noticeably drier than the east coast, as the trade winds lose moisture on the east coast and central highlands. Typical annual rainfall: 350 cm for south coast, 140 cm for the central highlands (in this case, for the capital of the country - Antananarivo), 32 cm in the south of the island, on the border with the desert.

Description of the slide:

Malagasy is an ethnic group that forms the main population of Madagascar. They speak Malagasy (Malgash), which belongs to the Indonesian group of the Austronesian language family. The total population is about 20 million people. The self-name goes back to the adjective from the word "Madagascar", thus, Malagasy is "Madagascar" in the Malagasy language, which in turn also means "Madagascar".

slide number 9

Description of the slide:

About 45% of the population professes Christianity, Catholicism or Protestantism. Most believers are trying to combine the cult of ancestors with Christian traditions. So, for example, not all Christians give up the practice of famidahan, especially for Catholics. Pastors from the Catholic Church may even come to the ceremony and bless the participants. The Protestant Church, on the other hand, has a very negative attitude towards the practice of the cult of ancestors and calls on its flock to abandon the "worship of the Devil." Christian church in Madagascar is a fairly influential political institution.

slide number 10

Description of the slide:

Madagascar predators are an endemic family of mammalian predators closely related to mongooses and numbering 8 species. The family is divided into two subfamilies: mungo (lat. Galidiinae) and Malagasy civet (lat. Euplerinae). Previously, an extinct species of giant fossa (lat. Cryptoprocta spelea) existed on the island, hunting giant lemurs, however, due to the extermination of lemurs by humans, the giant fossa also died out, having lost its food supply.

Madagascar's largest carnivore, the fossa, has a cat-like body and a dog-like nose, but is not considered to be either a cat or a dog. It is a rare endangered animal. It is twice the size of a normal domestic cat and preys primarily on birds and lemurs. The long tail helps the fossa to keep balance while climbing trees.

Give you, God, the Island of our ancestors, Joy and prosperity, And this is happiness for us Oh, dear Motherland, With all our heart, soul and body, With everything that we have dear, We dream to serve you. Oh, dear Motherland, We hope that the one who created the universe Will bless you And be the master of your destiny. Coat of arms of Madagascar

Geography Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, located in Indian Ocean, y east coast Africa, separated from it by the Mozambique Channel. The climate is tropical. The extreme south of the island is often referred to as the subtropics. The length of the island is about 1600 km, the width is over 600 km, and the area is 587,040 km². The island is the state of Madagascar (the capital of Antananarivo).

Climate The climate of the state is divided into three climatic zones: in the south of the country there is mainly a dry desert climate, in the central part it is tropical, in the north - equatorial monsoon. average temperature in summer months: from November to March 25-30 degrees above zero, in winter months: from April to October 15-20 degrees above zero

Politics The parliament is bicameral - the National Assembly of 127 deputies is elected by the population for a 4-year term, the Senate (100 seats) is filled by two-thirds of the representatives of the provincial assemblies, one-third is appointed by the president. Mark Ravalomanana

Language The entire population of Madagascar speaks Malagasy, which belongs to the same group as Indonesian, Malay. The second language used is mainly French, but also English.

Religion Catholicism, Christianity and Islam About 45% of the population professes Christianity, belonging to the Roman Catholic Church and Protestantism. Most believers are trying to combine the cult of ancestors with Christian traditions. The rest of the population (about 7%) practices Islam. Since the 90s of the XX century, Orthodoxy began to spread on the island.

Culture The art of the most ancient tribes of Madagascar is hidden from prying eyes, because it existed only in the imagination of every person and was not taken out of it. This feature is associated with the special secrecy of this ethnic group and sensitivity to evaluation by others. The cultural origins of the inhabitants of the island originate from the Austronesian culture and the culture of the Bantu tribes. In music, this influence was reflected in the choice of instruments and the style of singing. A living example of the successful coexistence of two different cultures is the Malagasy's preference for two essentially opposite instruments - the African drum and the valikh, an Indonesian string-plucked instrument.

Theater also plays a significant role in the culture of the people. Here he acts not just as a means of demonstrating something, but for the purpose of edification and inducement to goodness. The art of oratory is especially honored. Everywhere there is a peculiar combination of theater and singing - hiragashi, which plays not only a spiritual and entertaining, but also a political and educational role. During the performance of hiragashi, artists compete with each other in music, dance and oratory. It was first used in the 18th century by the first king of Madagascar to draw attention to his political speeches when he was still a prince. Later, the artists themselves began to include political satire in the numbers, and the audience was actively involved in the performance process through applause or hooting. Even now, aspiring politicians resort to the help of such hiragashi troupes. Later, the Malagasy people were influenced by Eastern and European civilizations (especially French culture). This manifested itself in architecture (the construction of rectangular houses elongated upwards with a sharp roof), in cuisine (French pastries are widespread on the island) and in language (French is the second official here).

Cuisine The cuisine of Madagascar mainly consists of rice dishes (vari) with a side dish (lauca). In the south, rice is sometimes replaced with crushed dried corn. The culinary traditions of France, China and India, and to a lesser extent East African, coupled with Arabic, had a significant influence on Malagasy cuisine.

Unlike African cuisine, Malagasy is not characterized by very spicy dishes, but in Lately In the 19th century, spicy semi-finished sauces appeared, made on the coast from traditional fruits (mango, lemon, etc.), which are gaining popularity in the country. Some of these sauces are served with the popular lasari salad, karauti, which consists of beans, cabbage and carrots.
