Togo is a fairly small African country. The few tourists who have visited it speak of the friendliness of the locals, the beauty of the rugged local scenery, and the many other interesting facts. The market in Lome, the capital of Togo, is regionally famous. On Wednesdays and Fridays, merchants from all the neighboring countries come there. Trade, and in general private business, is mainly carried out by women. The most successful and wealthy are called "mama-benz", as they mostly drive around in Mercedes. There you can buy almost anything: dried heads of crocodiles, skulls, carcasses of birds and rodents, good luck charms, medicinal herbs, amulets. In the cities of Togo, fashionable high-rise buildings border on the traditional adobe huts of the local poor. Such are the contrasts. Despite the fact that at different times Togo was under the auspices of the Germans, the British, and the French, it was French that eventually remained the official language here. Both Christianity and Islam coexist side by side in the country, but most of the inhabitants are still adherents of the voodoo cult. The inhabitants of that respect banana moonshine. It is often used for rituals inudu.
