Discover Mauritania
Use Mauritania as a map of regions rather than a single capital stop. Expect warm humidity, sudden storms and year-round green. Nouakchott works as a gateway; the character often sits in the regions beyond. Broadly part of Western Africa. Languages you will meet include Arabic. Use the map to frame the region, then drill into pins as coverage grows.
