The Union of the Comoros (until the Islamic Federal Republic of the Comoros ) is a country in the Indian Ocean, situated at the northern end of the Mozambique Channel between northern Madagascar and northern Mozambique . The country consists principally of three volcanic islands: Grande Comore Moheli and Anjouan , while the nearby island of Mayotte is claimed by Comoros but declined independence from France . The country's territory also encompasses many smaller islands. Its name was adopted from the word al-Khamar , meaning 'island of small moon,' as seen depicted on its flag. Union des Comores

Location: Southern Africa , group of islands in the Mozambique Channel , about two-thirds of the way between northern Madagascar and northern Mozambique It consists of four islands, of which three form the independent Union of Comoros and one is the French territory of Mayotte . Each island has two names: Grande Comore (Ngazidja), Moheli (Mwali), Anjouan (Nzwani), and Mayotte (Mahore). The interior of the volcanic islands vary from steep mountains to low hills. Le Karthala (2316 m) on Grand Comore is an active volcano.

The capital is Moroni. It consists of three volcanic main islands—Njazidja, Nzwani, and Mwali (formerly Grande-Comore, Anjouan, and Moheli, respectively)—as well as numerous coral reefs and islets. A fourth island, Mayotte, is administered by France but claimed by the Comoros. Because of poor soil, lack of natural resources, and overpopulation, the islands have severe economic problems. Most of the population is engaged in agriculture, involving subsistence crops and the production of vanilla, copra, and essential oils for export. The people are of mixed African, Arab, Malay, and Indian descent. French and Arabic are the official languages, but most people speak a local blend of Swahili and Arabic. The state religion is Islam.

The capital and largest city is Moroni . It is comprised of three main islands, Njazidja (or Ngazidja; also Grande Comore or Grand Comoros) : on which Moroni is located : Nzwani (or Ndzouani; also Anjouan), and Mwali (also MohEli), and numerous coral reefs and islets. They are volcanic in origin, with interiors that vary from high peaks to low hills and coastlines that feature many sandy beaches. Njazidja is the site of a still-active volcano, Karthala, which, at 7,746 ft (2,361 m), is the islands' highest peak. The Comoros have a tropical climate with the year almost evenly divided between dry and rainy seasons; cyclones (hurricanes) are quite frequent. The islands once supported extensive rain forests, but most have been severely depleted. The indigenous people are a mix of African, Arab, and Asian (mostly Indian and Malay) descent. Islam is the state religion (with Sunni predominating), and there is a sizable Roman Catholic minority. Arabic, French, and Comorian (a blend of Swahili and Arabic) are all official languages.

Comoros
Introduction [Top of Page] Background: Unstable Comoros has endured 19 coups or attempted coups since gaining independence from France in 1975. In 1997, the islands of Anjouan and Moheli declared their independence from Comoros. A subsequent attempt by the government to reestablish control over the rebellious islands by force failed, and presently the Organization of African Unity is brokering negotiations to effect a reconciliation.

Comoros - GEOGRAPHY
Comoros - PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT
The Comoros archipelago consists of four main islands aligned along a northwest-southeast axis at the north end of the Mozambique Channel, between Mozambique and the island of Madagascar. Still widely known by their French names, the islands officially have been called by their Swahili names by the Comoran government. They are Njazidja (Grande Comore), Mwali (Mohéli), Nzwani (Anjouan), and Mahoré (Mayotte). The islands' distance from each otherNjazidja is some 200 kilometers from Mahoré, forty kilometers from Mwali, and eighty kilometers from Nzwanialong with a lack of good harbor facilities, make transportation and communication difficult. The islands have a total land area of 2,236 square kilometers (including Mahoré), and claim territorial waters of 320 kilometers. Nzwani, triangular shaped and forty kilometers from apex to base, has an area of 424 square kilometers. Three mountain chainsSima, Nioumakele, and Jimilimeemanate from a central peak, Mtingui (1,575 meters), giving the island its distinctive shape. Older than Njazidja, Nzwani has deeper soil cover, but overcultivation has caused serious erosion. A coral reef lies close to shore; the island's capital of Mutsamudu is also its main port. Mwali is thirty kilometers long and twelve kilometers wide, with an area of 290 square kilometers. It is the smallest of the four islands and has a central mountain chain reaching 860 meters at its highest. Like Njazidja, it retains stands of rain forest. Mwali's capital is Fomboni.
