The Côte d'Ivoire, on
the south coast of the western bulge of
Africa, is bordered to the north by Mali
and Burkina Faso, to the east by Ghana,
to the south the Gulf of Guinea of the
Atlantic Ocean and to the west by Liberia
and Guinea.
Except for the prolongation of the Guinea
Highlands in the northwest (from Man to
Odienne), with peaks rising to 4000 and
5,000ft, the most part the Côte d'Ivoire
is vast plateau, tilted gently towards
the Atlantic. It is drained by four major
rivers running roughly parallel from north
to south, the Cavally (on the Liberian
frontier), Sassandra, Bandama and Comoe.
They are not of much value for transportation
as they are sluggish in the dry season,
broken by numerous falls and rapids and
subject to torrential flooding in the
rains.
