Limpopo Province

Limpopo (until 11 June 2003, Northern Transvaal) is the northernmost province of South Africa. The name was formally changed after deliberation by the provincial government. Other notable considerations were Mapungubwe, the area where the most ancient gold-using civilisation of the province was discovered a few years earlier. The tribe seemed to have strong links to the ruins and civilization of Great Zimbabwe.

97.3% of the population is Black African, 0.2% is Coloured, 0.1% is Indian/Asian, and 2.4% is White. Many people speak Tsonga.
