Zimbabwe may also be indicated. It is the name of an African country that has no landline, but is spectacularly beautiful. It is also the name of a river in the same country, in which the famous Victoria Falls (Zambezi River) are located. Its capital is Harare. The name itself means large stone houses, in the Karanga dialect (Shona-Bantu language). It can also mean Great Revered Stone Houses, Great Houses made of Stone Blocks, or Houses or Tombs of the Chiefs.
The Republic of Zimbabwe is an African country. Its name was originally proposed by nationalist politician Michael Mawema from an old name for the city of Great Zimbabwe, and is possibly formed from the karanga dzimba ("houses") bwe ("stone") words for the stone houses found in that village. See Rhodesia.
