Introduction
Djibouti is located in Eastern Africa, bordering the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea on the east, Eritrea to the
north, Ethiopia to the north and northwest and Somalia to the southeast.
The country can be divided into three regions; the coastal plain and volcanic plateaus in the central and southern
parts of the country and the mountain ranges in the north.
Much of the country is vast wastelands with virtually no arable land.
