History and Culture
Considered one of the major cradles of human civilisations, a long storied past can be associated with Northern Africa. The multi-cultural region is home to over 3,000 indigenous groups, each bearing distinct language, cultures, and traditions. The earliest human inhabitants developed and utilised great stonework techniques and established communities. Several migrations and settlements ensued in the pursuit of better living conditions.
Centuries of invasion and colonisation then followed, Carthage being one of the most powerful civilisations to have ever existed in the region’s history prior to the arrival of the Romans. Get a glimpse of the period’s glorious history in the archeological site of Carthage in Tunisia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where remains of the glorious Phoenician city can be found.
