1. Afrikas perle:<\/strong>\u00a0Uganda er ogs\u00e5 kjent som \"Afrikas perle\" - et begrep som ble skapt av den britiske statsmannen Sir Winston Churchill for \u00e5 beskrive landets mange skj\u00f8nnheter: sn\u00f8dekte fjelltopper, gr\u00f8nne \u00e5ser, dype skoger og krystallklare innsj\u00f8er...<\/p>\n

2. Uavhengighet:<\/strong>\u00a0Uganda ble selvstendig fra Storbritannia i 1962 (Uganda var ikke en britisk koloni som Kenya, men et britisk protektorat).<\/p>\n

3. Nasjonalsang og motto:<\/strong>\u00a0Ugandas offisielle motto er: \"For Gud og mitt land\". Ugandas nasjonalsang er \"Oh Uganda, Land of Beauty\".<\/p>\n

5. Nasjonal fugl:<\/strong>\u00a0Den gr\u00e5kronede tranen er Ugandas nasjonalfugl. Den ikke fullt s\u00e5 pene maraboustorken er imidlertid den vanligste fuglen i landet.<\/p>\n

Fakta: Ugandas nasjonalfugl er den gr\u00e5kronede tranen (\u00f8verst). Den vanligste fuglen er imidlertid den mindre attraktive marabustorken (nederst).<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. L<\/strong>anguages:<\/strong>\u00a0Det snakkes rundt 40 spr\u00e5k i Uganda. De afrikanske spr\u00e5kene i landet kan deles inn i tre spr\u00e5kfamilier: Bantuspr\u00e5kene (Niger-Kongo), nilotiske spr\u00e5k (nilo-sahariske spr\u00e5k) og de sentralsudanske spr\u00e5kene (sistnevnte regnes av noen som en del av de nilotiske spr\u00e5kene). Engelsk er landets offisielle spr\u00e5k, og ugandisk engelsk er en lokal dialekt av dette spr\u00e5ket. Swahili og arabisk er ogs\u00e5 blant de 40 spr\u00e5kene som snakkes i Uganda.<\/p>\n

7. Bananer:<\/strong>\u00a0Uganda er verdens nest st\u00f8rste bananprodusent etter India. Uganda produserer ca. 11,1 millioner tonn bananer hvert \u00e5r, mens India produserer 29,7 millioner tonn (henholdsvis 8% og 20% av verdensproduksjonen). I tillegg til bananer er Uganda ogs\u00e5 kjent for sine velsmakende ananas.<\/p>\n

8. Hurtigmat:<\/strong>\u00a0Ugandernes favorittfastfood heter \"rolex\" og er en slags eggepannekake med alt fra gr\u00f8nnsaker til p\u00f8lser. Navnet kommer fra en rask uttale av det engelske \"roll of eggs\" p\u00e5 luganda. Gastronomisk sett kan rolex best sammenlignes med en rullet omelett eller en eggburrito.<\/p>\n

9. Kj\u00f8ttgryte:<\/strong>\u00a0Ugandere elsker kj\u00f8ttgryter - dvs. gryteretter som er rike p\u00e5 kj\u00f8tt og inneholder innmat som lever, mage, tarm osv. Ingenting g\u00e5r til spille!<\/p>\n

10. Alkohol:<\/strong>\u00a0Uganda har et av de h\u00f8yeste alkoholkonsumene av alle afrikanske land. Den vanligste alkoholholdige drikken er \"waragi\", som er en type hjemmebrent gin (\"waragi\" er en betegnelse for hjemmebrent). Mange av de alkoholholdige drikkene i Uganda er laget av bananer.<\/p>\n

11. Victoriasj\u00f8en:<\/strong>\u00a0Afrikas st\u00f8rste innsj\u00f8, Victoriasj\u00f8en, ligger p\u00e5 grensen mellom Uganda, Tanzania og Kenya. USAs president Barack Obamas far (Barack Hussein Obama Sr) ble f\u00f8dt ved Victoriasj\u00f8ens bredder.<\/p>\n
