Extractions: Home Background The Geography of Zambia Next background topic - To see a bit more about the geography of Zambia and where the major towns and cities are located, why not have a look at the maps section of this site? The Land Zambia is a landlocked country in South Central Africa surrounded by Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia and Angola. Covering some 750,000 square kilometres it is roughly the size of France, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary combined but with a population of about 10 million. It consists of a generally level plateau of between 1060 and 1363 metres above sea level broken by small hills of mineral rich granite. In the east the Nyika Plateau rises to over 4000 metres. The plateau is cut by the Zambezi River from which the country takes its name, and its tributaries the Kafue and Luangwe producing large valleys and waterfalls such as the Victoria Falls. The rivers are unsuitable for river transport along their length though they are very suitable for hydroelectricity generation. A large amount of the country is covered with forest and woodland although this proportion is decreasing as a result of the pressure for land from its growing population The Climate Although within the tropical latitudes of 10 to 18 degrees south of the equator its altitude, averaging 1,300m above sea level, gives Zambia a moderate temperate climate with humidity normally below 40%.

Extractions: E NVIRONMENT / G EOGRAPHY THE LAND CLIMATE RAINFALL ENERGY ... CONSERVATION The Land Zambia takes its name from the Zambezi River, which rises in the north-west corner of the country and forms its southern boundary. The landlocked country lies between latitudes 10 o and 18 o South and longitudes 22 o and 33 o East. square kilometres makes it a large country about the size of France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland combined. It consists for the most part of a high plateau, with an average height of between 1060 The level of the land falls southward from the Congo DR / Zambezi divide in the north towards the Zambezi depression in the South. The plateau is broken by the huge valleys of the Upper Zambezi and its major tributaries, of which the Kafue and Luangwa rivers are the largest. One result of the plateau formation of Africa generally is the swift discharge of water towards the coast and the interruption of the rivers by waterfalls and rapids. This has made them of little value for transport over their length, but very suitable for hydroelectric schemes and white water rafting adventures. With the exception of the Northern and Luapula provinces which are part of the Congo DR basin, Zambia lies on the watershed between the Congo DR and Zambezi River systems. The three great natural lakes of the country, Bangweulu, Mweru and the southern end of Lake Tanganyika are all in the north and are part of the headwaters of the Zaire River. Lake Tanganyika is the second deepest natural lake in the world.
