“Where?”
Mauritania is a West African country that no one knows about, except, obviously, for Mauritanians. Peoples of countries neighboring Mauritania aren't even aware of its existence for they believe there is simply an empty void where it belongs. In all reality, it borders Mali and a bunch of other equally irrelevant countries.
“We were relevant enough to be used in the example!”
Mauritanian Geography
“Where did you say?”
Mauritanian is a flat, flat, indescribable land that very few people have seen. It is extremely easy to access, it's just that no one has any desire to see it.
“Or... they're BLIND!”
In the North, there is some deserted desert. Since the desert shows no real distinction from any other part of the Saharan desert, it adds to the forgetability of Mauritania. In the South, there are probably some grasslands and hills, but no one has ever made it that far due to the sheer boredom that sets in when getting through the Mauritanian desert.
“I would have made it if it weren't for those meddling kids!”
Cities include buildings and people like any other city. Their names are beyond me. The capital is... something unpronounceable. No-wack-chut? Nevermind.
“It's pronounced... Okay, you've got me.”
Mauritanian Politics
“The best kind of politics there are!”
The political landscape of Mauritania is almost as forgettable as the actual landscape of the country. It consists of candidates you've never heard of in pursuit of positions you've never heard of, which, come to think of it, sounds a lot like any other foreign country.
That being said, the irrelevance of Mauritanian politics far outweighs the irrelevance of say... Kyrgyzstan's politics.
“We appreciate being mentioned.”
Mauritanian Contributions to the World
“I've got nothin'.”
Although it may lack relevancy in politics, geography, and everything, Mauritania has surely changed the world in some way. *researches* After brief research, it has been discovered that this article, is in fact, the most important contribution to the world from Mauritania.
“I seriously doubt that.”
This article slightly outweighs the Uncyclopedia article about Mauritania (that I'm not quite sure how to link to). It also slightly beats out Mauritania's brief Wikipedia page... in comparison to, say, any other country's Wikipedia page.
Famous Mauritanians
“There was this one guy who did that one thing at that one time.”
Excluding people who are famous in Mauritania, some famous Mauritanians are... Excuse me. There are definitely some, I mean...
Well, I guess that save for a few presidents and whatnot, there aren't any famous Mauritanians at all.
“Well, it seems I'll being getting my Mauritanian citizenship in order to claim the title of a Famous Mauritanian.”
Mauritanian Culture
“They do... things... right?”
Mauritanians are known to do such not-worth-mentioning activities as eating, drinking, breathing, sleeping, farming, and some occasional talking. They are known for being the most overly generic African country.
“Finally.”
Some pastimes popular in Mauritania are:
- Being Mauritanian
- Being Mauritanian while standing
- Being Mauritanian while sitting
- Being Mauritanian while breathing
- Not being Mauritanian (on opposite day)
“Wait, does that mean Mauritania is relevant on opposite day?”
So anyway, I hope you learned something about Mauritania (because I certainly didn't teach anything about it).
