1. Nombres de lugares:<\/strong>\u00a0Burkina Faso tiene algunos top\u00f3nimos peculiares, como: Uagadug\u00fa, Gorom-Gorom, Bobo-Dioulasso, Bouroum-Bouroum, Fada N'Gourma, Tin-Akof, Ouahigouya, Niangoloko y Rambo.<\/p>\n

2. Significado de los nombres:<\/strong>\u00a0La capital de Burkina Faso es Uagadug\u00fa, que se deletrea \"Wogodogo\" en m\u00f2or\u00e9 (la lengua m\u00e1s hablada del pa\u00eds) y significa literalmente \"eres bienvenido aqu\u00ed con nosotros\". El nombre \"Burkina Faso\" significa \"Tierra de hombres honrados\", y los burkineses tambi\u00e9n son conocidos por ser algunos de los hombres m\u00e1s honrados de \u00c1frica.<\/p>\n

3. Nombres hist\u00f3ricos:<\/strong>\u00a0Burkina Faso se llam\u00f3 anteriormente Alto Volta franc\u00e9s (1919 - 1958) y m\u00e1s tarde Rep\u00fablica del Alto Volta (1958 - 1984) debido a su ubicaci\u00f3n al norte del r\u00edo Volta, que desemboca en Ghana (al sur de Burkina Faso). En 1984, el pa\u00eds cambi\u00f3 su nombre por el de Burkina Faso bajo la presidencia del revolucionario marxista Thomas Sankara.<\/p>\n

4. Sequ\u00eda:<\/strong>\u00a0Burkina Faso sufre con relativa frecuencia largos per\u00edodos de sequ\u00eda. Los peores fueron en 1980, 1988, 1990 y 1995. Adem\u00e1s, el pa\u00eds se ve afectado ocasionalmente por epidemias e inundaciones.<\/p>\n

5. Fertilidad:<\/strong>\u00a0Con una media de 6 hijos por mujer, la poblaci\u00f3n de Burkina Faso tiene una de las tasas de fecundidad m\u00e1s altas del mundo.<\/p>\n

Dato: 80% de la poblaci\u00f3n de Burkina Faso depende de la agricultura de subsistencia (es decir, de la agricultura de autoabastecimiento). El algod\u00f3n es el producto agr\u00edcola de exportaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s importante<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. Idiomas:<\/strong>\u00a0Debido a que Burkina Faso es una antigua colonia francesa, la lengua oficial del pa\u00eds en la actualidad es el franc\u00e9s. Adem\u00e1s, se hablan las siguientes lenguas: M\u00f2or\u00e9, Fulani, Lobi, Bobo, Mand\u00e9, Senufo, Gurunsi, Gurma y Tuareg. La mayor\u00eda de estas lenguas pertenecen a la familia ling\u00fc\u00edstica sudanesa<\/p>\n

7. Poblaci\u00f3n:<\/strong>\u00a0La etnia m\u00e1s numerosa de Burkina Faso es la mossi, que representa m\u00e1s del 40% de la poblaci\u00f3n del pa\u00eds (unos 6,2 millones de personas). El resto de la poblaci\u00f3n de Burkina Faso est\u00e1 compuesta por m\u00e1s de 60 grupos \u00e9tnicos diferentes, entre los que destacan los gurunsi, senufo, lobi, bobo y fulani.<\/p>\n

8. Pobreza:<\/strong>\u00a0Burkina Faso es uno de los pa\u00edses m\u00e1s pobres del mundo, con un PIB per c\u00e1pita de 1.500 d\u00f3lares.\u00a0\u00cdndice de Desarrollo Humano de la ONU<\/a>\u00a0Burkina Faso es uno de los \u00faltimos pa\u00edses<\/p>\n

9. Mercanc\u00edas de exportaci\u00f3n:<\/strong>\u00a0Los dos principales productos de exportaci\u00f3n de Burkina Faso son el oro y el algod\u00f3n (Burkina Faso es el mayor productor de algod\u00f3n de \u00c1frica). Alrededor del 80% de la poblaci\u00f3n depende de la agricultura de subsistencia, es decir, una agricultura autosuficiente en la que el agricultor s\u00f3lo produce alimentos suficientes para su propia familia y, posiblemente, para algunas otras personas de la zona.<\/p>\n

10. Baja urbanizaci\u00f3n:<\/strong>\u00a0Burkina Faso es una de las sociedades menos urbanizadas de \u00c1frica, y la inmensa mayor\u00eda de la poblaci\u00f3n sigue viviendo en zonas rurales. Las 5 ciudades m\u00e1s grandes y sus poblaciones son: Ouagadougou (1.181.702), Bobo Dioulasso (435.543), Koudougou (82.720), Banfora (72.144), Ouahigouya (70.957)<\/p>\n
