Repeated military coups during the 1970s and 1980s were followed by multiparty elections in the early 1990s. Burkina Faso's high population density and limited natural resources result in poor economic prospects for the majority of its citizens. Recent unrest in Cote d'Ivoire and northern Ghana has hindered the ability of several hundred thousand seasonal Burkinabe farm workers to find employment in neighboring countries.

Western Africa Burkina Faso Print Cite Feedback E-mail This ... Recommend Cite This! Close Please copy/paste the following text to properly cite this HowStuffWorks article: Burkina Faso is a country in western Africa. Burkina Faso, or Burkina, a landlocked country in western Africa. It lies south of the Sahara and is bordered by Mali, Niger, Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Cte d'Ivoire. The area is 105,869 square miles (274,200 km2)—about that of the state of Colorado. The name Burkina Faso, adopted in 1984, means "Land of Honest People." The previous name was Upper Volta. The land consists of plains and low plateaus that average roughly 700 to 1,100 feet (210 to 340 m) above sea level. The highest area is in the southwest near the Mali border, where an elevation of 2,460 feet (750 m) is reached. Much of Burkina Faso dips gently toward the south and is drained by the Black Volta (Mouhoun), Red Volta (Nazinon), and White Volta (Nakambe) rivers, which unite in Ghana to form the Volta River. The climate is tropical and is marked by three distinct seasons: warm and dry (November-February), hot and dry (March-May), and hot and wet (June-October). Temperatures often rise well above 100° F. (38° C.) during the hottest months and rarely drop below 60° F. (16° C.) during the coolest. A hot, dry, dust-laden wind, called a harmattan, occasionally blows in from the Sahara during the dry months. Annual rainfall, which is highly variable from year to year, averages from less than 10 inches (250 mm) in the north to as much as 40 inches (1,000 mm) in the south.
