Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe is located in southern Africa and its largest city and capital city are Harare. The country has approximately 16 million residents and those residents speak16 different languages, including English, Ndebele, and Shona as the most common. The present day territory was first Democratized by British South Africa Company of Cecil Rhodes in the 1890s. In 1923 it became a self-governing body of Southern Rhodesia. In 1980 a peace treaty established de jure sovereignty and universal suffrage in Zimbabwe.
The country is a member of the United Nations, The African Union, Southern African Development Community (SADC), and Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa(COMESA). Zimbabwe is a Republic under a presidential system of government Robert Mugabe was the Prime Minister in 1980 to 1987, and served as President between 1987 to 2017. He resigned in 2017 after beign impeached for human rights violations that occurred during his tenure as President.
Zimbabwe’s economy is driven by tourism and export industries. The major exports include gold, agriculture, and minerals. The mining industry is very lucrative, as the largest platinum mines in the world are found in the country. Although tourism was a major economic driver in recent years, deforestation, and death of wildlife in the area are contributing factors to a decline in the number of tourists visiting the country since 2007.
The judicial and legal systems are based on Roman and Dutch laws. The chief justice heads a four-member Supreme court, and has jurisdiction over cases dealing with alleged violations of fundamental rights. There is also a high court, which consists of a general and appellate division.
Regional magistrate courts are below the high courts, with jurisdiction over civil and criminal cases. The President appoints the chief justice of the High Court and Supreme court.
