Tunisia by Andrés

Tunisia has a presidential government, which has eight chambers, each one with one hundred ministers, who are supposed to represent the people, their current president has been in the power by twenty years, because of a revolution called “the Change” this president, has made lots of things for busting the economy and pluripartidism, so I guess he’s kind of appreciated by his people.
Tunisia is one of the strongest African economies, based in tourism, oil extraction, agriculture and diamond extraction, as a matter of fact, the movie “blood diamonds” is based in a Tunisian real happening and it was filmed in Tunisia.
They speak Arabic and in certain parts they speak French too (mainly in the capital, which is called Tunis) their Arabic has been very modified by the influence of Malta which is an island really near to Tunisia.
At the cuisine, they are mainly a blend of the Mediterranean and desert cooking, also influenced by lots of cultures that had invaded Tunisia across the year(such as the URSS, Iraq and Egypt), anyways, they use mainly lamb and seafood, with tomatoes, spices and olive oil, all of these products are really usual across the whole Mediterranean sea.
Tunisia’s most recognized rhythm is the malouf, which has it’s origins in the Turkish and Spanish music, this rhythm is the origin of almost every gypsy rhythm that went over Europe in the last centuries.
Tunisia is an tourism area for the summers and winters of the European people, mainly from Germany, France and England, that’s why the country has developed a good tourism structure in the coast and near Tunis, which are the two regions more visited by tourists.
Tunisia has had several rugby championships, its football team is good in the Africa federation, tennis and a sport called Péntaque which is very popular too, Péntaque is a sport with a similar goal as curling, but you have to throw the balls for get them in the centre of a bull eye.
