Zambia takes its name from the Zambezi River, which rises in the north-west corner of the country and forms its southern boundary. This landlocked country lies between the latitudes 10o and 18o South and longitudes 22o and 33o East.
The Zambian currency is the kwacha, K (international currency code ZMW), which is equivalent to 100 ngwee. Zambian banknotes are in denominations of K100, 50, 20, 10, 5 and 2. Coins are in denominations of K1 and 50, 10 and 5 ngwee.
On the list of traditional Zambian beverages, Munkoyo is perhaps the most favorite and a well known non-alcoholic drink in Zambia. It is found in every corner of the country, regardless of the tribal affiliation.
