Lusaka is the capital and largest city of Zambia, home to approximately 3.3 million residents and one of Africa's fastest-growing cities. It operates on Central Africa Time (CAT, UTC+2), a fixed year-round offset. Zambia was the first sub-Saharan African country to nationalise its copper mines in 1969, and copper still dominates its economy — the Copperbelt region north of Lusaka is one of the world's richest copper deposits. Zambia is also one of Africa's more stable democracies, having experienced multiple peaceful transfers of power. Victoria Falls, shared with Zimbabwe, is reachable from Lusaka in about 6 hours — the falls are known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya ('The Smoke That Thunders'). Zambia has exceptional wildlife — South Luangwa National Park is considered one of Africa's finest game reserves. David Livingstone, the Scottish explorer who was the first European to see Victoria Falls (in 1855), is closely associated with Zambia, and the border town near the falls bears his name.
