Zatingo

Zatingo, located on the offshore island of the same name, is one of the oldest cities in Mafosaland. It has changed little over the centuries, with donkeys and cats wandering freely through its narrow, winding streets. The men of Zatingo dress in full-length white robes, while women are covered in black wrap-around scarves. Sailing boats line the harbor. Due to centuries-old contacts with the Kaspari Empire, many of the customs of Zatingo would be familiar to the Kaspari people, and vice versa.
Not as important a city as Kealings City, Myanikwe, or Sotocani, it has nonetheless a troubled history of occupation by colonial powers. Zatingo is now controlled by Hallandy as part of the territory of Mafosaland. Colonists on Zatingo have grown rich exporting ivory, cowries, tortoise shell, mangrove poles, oil seeds, and grain, though very few of Zatingo's residents are Hallandic. Ferries link Zatingo to Kealings City and Myanikwe on the mainland, as well as nearby Lama Island.
The beaches are of beautiful pristine white sand and the water currents are tropical. The rest of Zatingo Island is a vast tropical forest of palms and thick jungle undergrowth. Important sites in Zatingo include Zatingo Fort, the Uzili Mosque, Pierce's Inn, the Customs House, the Hallandic Hospital, and the markets.
