Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) and its Cuisine

Côte d'Ivoire; officially: République de Côte d'Ivoire, Republic of Côte d'Ivoire Côte d'Ivoire is a republic with a strong executive power personified in the President. Its de jure capital is Yamoussoukro and the official language is French. The country is divided into 19 regions and 58 departments. Côte d'Ivoire's economy is largely market-based and relies heavily on agriculture, with smallholder cash crop production being dominant. 77% of the population are considered Ivorians. They represent several different people and language groups. An estimated 65 languages are spoken in the country. One of the most common is Dyula, which acts as a trade language as well as a language commonly spoken by the Muslim population. French, the official language, is taught in schools and serves as a lingua franca in urban areas (particularly Abidjan). The majority of Ivorians are largely Christian (primarily Roman Catholic) and animist. 4% of the population is of non-African ancestry. Many are French, Vietnamese and Spanish citizens, as well as Protestant missionaries from the United States and Canada.

Traditional Ivoarian cuisine combines local fresh fruit with chicken and/or peanuts. Much of the recipes used here are traditionally West African and there is also a strong French influence to the cuisine. Along with fish and grains yam and cassava are the country's staples.
