Mauritius: In Africa with a difference

This easternmost African nation in the Indian Ocean comprises a large island of the same name with a few comparatively smaller ones. It is also the wealthiest nation belonging to this continent, which means there is excellent infrastructure for transport and the locals enjoy a high quality of life. There are 2 international airports offering flights to Mauritius, with one offering the most. This country was discovered by the Portuguese, when these islands were uninhabited and were under Dutch, French, and British control, in that order. The colonists brought slaves and laborers to work in the sugarcane plantations and today most of the population is of Indian origin with Africans from the Southeast of the continent forming the largest minority, with small populations of people of Chinese and French ancestry. So, you will find a culture that is not quite Indian and not African, but a mix of these with European influences. For instance, you will find restaurants offering items from different cuisines, with a lot of seafood.
