Botswana’s economy is one of Africa’s most impressive success stories. From being one of the world’s poorest countries, it elevated itself into one of Africa’s most developed nations thanks to a large deposit of diamonds and precious metals. But its livability is greatly hindered by its healthcare and longevity issues, being one of the countries that are most affected by HIV/AIDS epidemic. It is estimated that a quarter of the country’s over 2 million population is infected with the virus. Botswana’s citizens have an average life expectancy of only 64.5 and are expected to be in school for 12.5 years.
