Zimbabwe is a landlocked country in southern Africa lying north of the Tropic of Capricorn. During summer, the whole country experiences warm temperatures as a result of the sun being directly overhead. It straddles an extensive high inland plateau that drops northwards to the Zambezi valley where the border with Zambia is and similarly drops southwards to the Limpopo valley and the border with South Africa. The country has borders with Botswana (813 km), Mozambique --1,231 km, South Africa (225 km), Zambia-- 797 km and almost meets Namibia at its westernmost point. The highest point is at 2,592m; Mt. Inyangani. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)
