How to Distinguish

  • As of November 2023, there is no official coverage.
  • Official language: Portuguese.
  • Cashew nut production is a major industry.

As a former Portuguese colony, it belongs to the Portuguese-speaking world, and the same style of utility poles found in Brazil and São Tomé and Príncipe can be found here too.

There’s no precise data, but with so much of the population involved in cashew nut production, cashew trees should be common. You might also spot nuts drying on mats, though there are too few Street View images to be certain. Mining and other resource production are minimal.
