Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland, is a landlocked kingdom located in Southern Africa, bordered by South Africa and Mozambique. It is one of the smallest countries on the continent, with a diverse climate and topography that ranges from mountainous regions to dry lowlands.

The nation is characterized by its absolute monarchy, currently ruled by King Mswati III since 1986, making it one of the last remaining absolute monarchies in the world.

Eswatini's economy is primarily based on agriculture and manufacturing, and it faces significant challenges such as high unemployment, poverty, and a severe HIV/AIDS epidemic, which has profoundly affected its population. Despite these issues, the country has made strides in economic growth and social development but continues to grapple with inequality and limited access to essential services
