The Kingdom of Lesotho, a small mountainous independent state, is totally surrounded by South Africa. Established as a single political entity under king Moshoeshoe I, it became a protectorate under British control in 1868. Basutoland, as it was long called, achieved its independence in 1966. Many of its approximately two million people are extremely poor.
(Moshoeshoe is pronounced Maw-shwair-schwair, with silent r's)
