Zimbabwe (
IPA: ), officially the Republic of Zimbabwe, and formerly
Southern Rhodesia, the
Republic of Rhodesia and
Zimbabwe Rhodesia, is a
landlocked country in the southern part of the
continent of Africa, between the
Zambezi and
Limpopo rivers. It borders
South Africa to the south,
Botswana to the southwest,
Zambia to the northwest, and
Mozambique to the east. The name Zimbabwe derives from "Zimba Remabwe" meaning "big house of stone" in the
Shona language. Its use as the country's name is a tribute to
Great Zimbabwe, site of the capital of the
Empire of Great Zimbabwe. The official language of Zimbabwe is
English, however the majority of the population speaks
Shona, one of the native languages of Zimbabwe.
