Description:

Niger is a landlocked country located in West Africa. It shares borders with seven countries, including Nigeria, Algeria, and Mali. With a population of approximately 24 million people, it is one of the largest countries in Africa. Niger's economy heavily relies on agriculture, particularly subsistence farming, as well as uranium mining. The country faces several challenges, such as poverty, food insecurity, and limited access to education and healthcare.

Despite its challenges, Niger is known for its warm hospitality and beautiful landscapes, including the Sahara desert and the River Niger.
