Ouagadougou is the capital and largest city of Burkina Faso, home to approximately 3 million residents. It operates on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+0). The city's name (often shortened to 'Ouaga') derives from the Mooré language meaning 'you are welcome here.' Burkina Faso ('Land of Upright People' in Mooré and Dioula) is a landlocked Sahelian nation facing severe security challenges from jihadist insurgencies since 2015. Despite this, Ouagadougou is known throughout West Africa for FESPACO — the Pan-African Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou, held every two years since 1969, which is the most important film festival in Africa. Burkina Faso has a remarkably vibrant cultural and artistic scene. The country is one of the world's largest cotton producers. Ouagadougou's Grand Mosque, the National Museum, and the FADA market are major city landmarks. Burkina Faso experienced multiple coups (2015, 2022) reflecting deep political instability.
