Tunisia is an agrarian country with a developing industry and a dynamic economy. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations for many holidaymakers who are attracted by the identity, ancient culture and breathtaking scenery of this country. A place where the traditions of the East and the achievements of Western civilization have existed together for thousands of years. A country from oriental tales, where people are just as hospitable and incredibly kind. A rich historical past has left a large number of architectural monuments, many of which are included in UNESCO.
The French Empire had a great influence on the culture of the country. The French presence gave Tunisians the opportunity to experience European developments. Education reforms were carried out, after which Muslim scholars from all over northern Africa came here to study. Railways, seaports, and highways were built. Phosphate deposits were discovered, and iron, zinc, lead, copper and other minerals began to be mined. Despite the many negative aspects of French power, such intervention gave the country development and secular advancement.
Today Tunisia is a modern Muslim country, women here do not hide their faces under a veil, and in stores you can buy good wine and liqueurs from a local manufacturer. All families have many children with a clear division in the family: men earn money, women run the household and take care of children. There is no paid higher education in Tunisia, but there is a free one for those who passed the final (regional) exams well. For children who cannot attend schools, the state is introducing digital technologies, thanks to which all children can receive education remotely.
If you see Tunisia as your home, then feel free to go there. This is a country of eternal summer with unique flora and fauna, with magnificent beaches, sea harbors, yacht clubs, with vibrant festivals and the legendary Carthage.
