Burkina Faso News: Burkina Faso is situated in West Africa and is landlocked by six countries such as Mali, Niger, Benin, Togo, Ghana and Cote d?Ivoire. The name ?Burkina? in Dioula means ?men of integrity? and ?Faso? may be translated as ?father?s house?. It?s an economically under developed country and has also suffered majorly from perennial droughts. Burkina is a land of deserts and also has green pastures in certain areas along with a diverse and fascinating culture. This country also has significant gold reserves, which along with cotton production form a major part of their economy. Besides this there are a number of tourist sites in its capital, Ouagadougou that also has an Ethnography Museum. There are a number of other museums such as National Museum and Snake Museum, Moro-Naba Palace, and an artificial lake among many others.
