In fact, it's the world's fourth largest island. Most species of lemur live on this chiefly agricultural country. Despite the size of the country, most people here live in poverty, and many suffer from malnutrition.
Some people like to call Madagascar a micro-continent, and it is rightly so.
The island of Madagascar is one of the most diverse areas on the planet earth. The environments of this country cover everything from bays, rain-forests, scrublands, deserts, mountains, valleys, and everything in between. In addition to that, it also seems to have been frozen in time, and many areas of the island still stand untouched, from when human's first graced the island. There are two official languages spoken on the island of Madagascar. These two languages are French, and Malagasy.
