Culture

Education: The wealthier of the Zimbabweans send their childeren to independant-run schools and the poorer of the population send their childeren to government-run schools. Zimbabwe requires 7 years of primary school, 4 years of secondary school, and 2 years of high school before they can enter a university. The literacy rate in Zimbabwe is of the highest in Africa, but the adult literacy rate is slowly declining.

Food: The British controlled Zimbabwe until 1923, and as a result, food unadorned with spices, commonly associated with British cooking, infiltrated Zimbabwean cuisine with sugar, bread, and tea.

Arts & Literature:Zimbabwe can boast some of the continent's most eminent English-language writers such as Dambudzo Marechera, Chenjerai Hove, Yvonne Vera, Charles Mungoshi, Tsitsi Dangarembga, and Shimmer Chinodya.

Sports: Cricket is one of the most popular sports in Zimbabwe. They also have football, soccer, rugby, tennis, and polocross.

Clothing: The fashion in Zimbabwe has a very tribal feel to it, but it is similiar to here in the U.S. but just with its own cultural touch.
