SwazilandThe Kingdom of Swaziland is a small, landlocked country in Southern Africa, situated on the eastern slope of the Drakensberg mountains, embedded between South Africa in the west and Mozambique in the east. The country is named after the Swazi, a Bantu tribe. Primarily due to having the world's highest rate of HIV infection, Swaziland has the lowest life expectancy on the planet: just 32.62 years. This is expected to drop to just 29 years by the year 2010. Mbabane is the capital of Swaziland. Lobamba is the traditional and legislative capital of Swaziland, seat of the Parliament and residence of the Queen Mother.
