The culture of the Seychelles is a blend of some European but mainly African elements. For instance, the sombre moutia, the distinctive dance of the Seychelles, has strong African and Malagasy rhythms. Seychellois songs are prayers refashioned into work chants by slaves and their descendants.
Population:81,188 (July 2005 est.).About 90% of the Seychellois people live on the island of Mahé. Most of the rest live on Praslin and La Digue, with the remaining smaller islands either sparsely populated or uninhabited.
