Note that Isandra, Lalangina and Vohibato Districts previously formed Fianarantsoa II District (within Haute Matsiatra Region) which has now been split into these three new districts. Another new district was formed by the splitting off of the new Mandoto District from Betafo District (within Vakinankaratra Region).
Madagascar (/ˌmædəˈɡæskər/ ; Malagasy:Madagasikara), officially the Republic of Madagascar (Malagasy:Repoblikan'i Madagasikara[republiˈkʲan madaɡasˈkʲarə̥]; French:République de Madagascar), and previously known as the Malagasy Republic, is an island country in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Southeast Africa. The nation comprises the island of Madagascar (the fourth-largest island in the world), as well as numerous smaller peripheral islands. Following the prehistoric breakup of the supercontinentGondwana, Madagascar split from the Indian peninsula around 88million years ago, allowing native plants and animals to evolve in relative isolation. Consequently, Madagascar is a biodiversity hotspot; over 90% of its wildlife is found nowhere else on Earth. The island's diverse ecosystems and unique wildlife are threatened by the encroachment of the rapidly growing human population and other environmental threats.
The first archaeological evidence for human foraging on Madagascar dates to 2000BC. Human settlement of Madagascar occurred between 350BC and AD550 by Austronesian peoples arriving on outrigger canoes from Borneo. These were joined around AD 1000 by Bantu migrants crossing the Mozambique Channel from East Africa. Other groups continued to settle on Madagascar over time, each one making lasting contributions to Malagasy cultural life. The Malagasy ethnic group is often divided into 18 or more sub-groups of which the largest are the Merina of the central highlands.
Madagascar is a British nature documentary series, first broadcast on BBC Two and BBC HD in February 2011. Produced by the BBC Natural History Unit and Animal Planet and narrated by David Attenborough, the three-part series focuses on the landscape and wildlife of the island of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. Attenborough also appears briefly on camera at the beginning and end of the series. Each episode is followed by a ten-minute Madagascar Diaries segment, illustrating the techniques used to film a particular subject.
An accompanying documentary, Attenborough and the Giant Egg, was broadcast on BBC Two in March 2011. In this one-off programme, David Attenborough undertakes a personal journey back to Madagascar to investigate the fate of Aepyornis, the island's extinct elephant birds. Believed to be the largest birds which have ever lived, evidence of their existence can still be found on the island. Whilst filming Zoo Quest to Madagascar in 1961, Attenborough pieced together a complete elephant bird egg from fragments of shell collected for him.
Madagascar is a software package for multidimensional data analysis and reproducible computational experiments. Its mission is to provide
a convenient and powerful environment
a convenient technology transfer tool
for researchers working with digital image and data processing in geophysics and related fields. Technology developed using the Madagascar project management system is transferred in the form of recorded processing histories, which become "computational recipes" to be verified, exchanged, and modified by users of the system.
Features
The Madagascar environment consists of:
Standalone programs for out-of-core data analysis;
Standalone programs for geophysical data processing and imaging;
A development kit for C, C++, Java, Fortran-77, Fortran-90, Python, Matlab, and Octave;
A framework for reproducible numerical experiments, based on SCons;
A framework for scientific publications, based on SCons and LaTeX;
A collection of reproducible scientific articles also used as usage examples and regression tests for the standalone programs;
Antananarivo, also known as Tananarive is the largest city in Madagascar. The population is over 1.275 million people. It was founded around 1610.
I am here for a few days, then I plan to travel to other cities on the coast of Madagascar.

Several districts in Madagascar brace for another tropical storm
Several districts in #Madagascar are on high alert as residents brace for another tropical storm. It's projected to hit the region in the coming days and it could set off heavy rains and mudslides. The southern African nation is still reeling from two deadly cyclones already this year that has killed more than 175 people and destroyed homes and roads. Aksel Zaimovic reports.

The World's Red Light Districts: Countries Where Prostitution Is Legal 2023

Prostitution exists in various forms, and its legality varies from country to country (sometimes even from one state or county to another). This disparity reflects the wide range of national opinions that exist on issues related to prostitution, including exploitation, gender roles, ethics and morality, freedom of choice, and social norms.
Prostitution is seen as a serious problem by many religious groups and feminist activist organizations. Some feminists believe that prostitution harms and exploits women and reinforces stereotypes about women as sexual objects. Other feminists believe that prostitution is the r...
