Inseparable shadows

The Kingdom of Lesotho is the largest enclaved country within a country in the world (within the Republic of South Africa). Lesotho, officially the Kingdom of Lesotho, is located in southeastern Africa, on the western slopes of the Drakensberg Mountains at the eastern edge of the South African plateau. As a landlocked country completely surrounded by South Africa, it is known as a 'country within a country' and is the largest of its kind in the world, with a land area of 30,344 square kilometers. One of the most iconic structures in Lesotho is the Mokorotlo hut in its capital, Maseru. This is a hat made from the indigenous mose grass that is ubiquitous in Sotho culture. This accessory has not only become a symbol of the dominant Bantu ethnic group but also a symbol of Lesotho itself, appearing on the national flag and Lesotho's vehicle license plates. Lesotho's unique spiral aloe. This is a very resilient species of Aloes that can withstand frost and freezing on the high mountains of Lesotho. The red hot poker of Lesotho is found in its natural habitat in the Lesotho mountains, at an altitude of nearly 3,000 meters. It is a very striking tall species with frosty leaves. The typical habitat is moist shrubbery, growing along mountain streams with bushy species or on damp basalt cliffs.
