Mauritania Culture
Introduction
Mauritania, a vast country at the crossroads of North and Sub-Saharan Africa, is home to a

Known as the "Land of a Million Poets," Mauritania is steeped in oral traditions, spiritual
practices, and communal living. This essay explores Mauritanian culture through three key
