3. Sir Winston Churchill calls Uganda the "Pearl of Africa". He visited Uganda during his British rule.
4. Uganda is called the "fruit basket of Africa". The soil of the country is very fertile, which is why there are so many crops. From here food is supplied to most parts of the African continent. The pineapple here is very tasty. If you have ever eaten pineapple in Uganda, you will never forget that taste.

8. Uganda is a land of great biodiversity. Here you can see all kinds of chimpanzees, colorful butterflies and gorillas. More gorillas are found here than in any other country in East Africa. And so many colorful butterflies are not seen in any other country in the world.
9. Uganda is a country of ethnic and cultural diversity. If you pick two people from all over Uganda, most of the time there will be ethnic differences between them.
