Niger is a very interesting country. The first thing we have to know about Niger is that it is not Nigeria. This becomes difficult because the people of Niger are called Nigerians and the people of Nigeria are called Nigerians. So we have to use something else. Ok, Niger is the country that looks like a blowfish swimming to the bottom.

 Which actually is where it is in terms of the United Nations Human Development Index. 186th out of 186 countries. Nice! Also, Nigeria is the country with the President named Goodluck, the First Lady named Patience and the Petroleum Minister named Ever. Niger does not have good luck or patience. Ever. What Niger has is sand: 80% of the blowfish is desert.

Niger also has a National Museum, which is one of the best in all of West Africa,



and a palatial Temple to the Law:


Niger also has a modern transportation infrastructure.

Ground transportation is augmented with a fleet of well-appointed taxis and friendly drivers.


There is no traffic congestion in Niger.
Ever.

Reliable motor vehicles are available for rental in case the camel breaks down.


A cheerful "Welcome" sign greets tourists to the capital.

Four- and five-crescent rated hotels, this one from only $102/night, are plentiful.


As is sophisticated catch-and-eat al fresco dining.

All this, without the false comfort of alcohol on account of Niger is strictly Islamic.

Nice!
