Matabeleland South
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Matabeleland South is a province of Zimbabwe. It has an area of 54,172 km² and a population of approximately 650,000 (2002). Gwanda is the capital of the province.
[edit] Geography
The province sits on the edge of the Botswana desert, hence it is arid and very dry. Unsuitable for agriculture, a large part of the province is taken up by the Hwange National Park, in which elephants roam free.
[edit] Matabeleland South districts
The province is divided into 6 districts, Beitbridge, Bulilimamangwe, Gwanda, Insiza, Matobo and Umzingwane.
