Lesotho

A scenic land of tall mountains and narrow valleys, Lesotho owes a long history of political autonomy to the mountains that surround it and protects it from encroachment. It is ranked 31st in the world and 2nd in Africa with a female to male ratio of 106.182 to 100 men. 50.8% of the country’s population are women.
