History Independent from France in 1960, Mauritania annexed the southern third of the former Spanish Sahara (now Western Sahara) in 1976, but relinquished it after three years of raids by the Polisario guerrilla front seeking independence for the territory. Opposition parties were legalized and a new constitution approved in 1991. Two multiparty presidential elections since then were widely seen as flawed, but October 2001 legislative and municipal elections were generally free and open. Mauritania remains, in reality, a one-party state. The country continues to experience ethnic tensions between its black minority population and the dominant Maur (Arab-Berber) populace. UNAIDS Epidemiological
Fact Sheets
[English] [French] Global Surveillance of HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is a joint effort of WHO and UNAIDS. The UNAIDS/WHO Working Group on Global HIV/AIDS and STI Surveillance, initiated in November 1996, guides respective activities. The primary objective of the working group is to strengthen national, regional and global structures and networks for improved monitoring and surveillance of HIV/AIDS and STIs. For this purpose, the working group collaborates closely with national AIDS programmes and a number of national and international experts and institutions. The goal of this collaboration is to compile the best information available and to improve the quality of data needed for informed decision-making and planning at national, regional and global levels. The Epidemiological Fact Sheets are one of the products of this close and fruitful collaboration across the globe.

Bring complete supplies of pots, pans, dishes, glassware, kitchen utensils, dish drainer, linens, washable cotton blankets, and shower curtains with liners. Although bed pillows can be provided, most people prefer to bring their own. Keep in mind the heavy dust (actually sand) sometimes permeates the houses despite weather stripping. Bring all small appliances you regularly use to post. Many people purchase 220v appliances for the frequently used, high-voltage appliances such as irons, toasters, hairdryers, microwaves, and coffee makers. Small 110v appliances such as mixers, blenders, and food processors are used less frequently and for briefer periods, can operate effectively with transformers. Many Embassy personnel order “forgotten” items from the U.S. outlets and have them shipped via the pouch. ... [

    Stephen Cory

    Invisible Barriers: The Problem with Regionalization
    The traditional area studies approach towards Africa is to divide the continent between North Africa (Arab Africa) and sub-Saharan Africa (Black Africa). The North African states of Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, and Morocco (and sometimes also the Sudan and Mauritania) are linked with the Arab world and the Middle East. This trade was so prosperous that changes in the trade routes led to the rise and fall of different trading centers over the centuries. The wealth of the caravan trade also inspired numerous efforts by African and European states to establish control over the trade routes. Yet, the source of the West African gold trade remained surprisingly elusive for the foreign potentates who made these attempts. Another link between the two regions was provided by the Islamic religion. In both East and West Africa, the spread of Islam moved from north to south.

    Internet Resource Guide
    Introduction
    This guide was created to serve the needs of scholars, students, and interested individuals in finding and using internet resources dealing with the Middle East. In this document the Middle East is defined as broadly as possible. It includes:
    • Mauritania in the west, Pakistan in the east, Somalia in the south, and Central Asian Republics in the north.
    The region is defined in this way because of my belief that the interaction between cultures in this broadly defined region is partially responsible for the diffusion of many social, political, cultural and linguistic traits. Many disagree with the inclusion of one state or another but I will stand by my reading of history.
