Zambia, officially the Republic of Zambia, is a landlocked country in Southern Africa. The capital city is Lusaka, in the south-central part of Zambia. The population is concentrated mainly around Lusaka in the south and the Copperbelt Province to the northwest, the core economic hubs of the country.
Northern Rhodesia was created in 1911 from territory administered by the British South Africa Company, becoming an official British protectorate in 1924, and achieving independence as Zambia in 1964.
In 2010, the World Bank named Zambia one of the world's fastest economically reformed countries.
