Cabo Verde (CPV)

Cabo Verde, an island nation off West Africa, is shaped by the Atlantic winds, morna music, and a history of migration. Cape Verdeans are known for their hospitality, seafaring skills, and a culture that blends African and Portuguese influences. Roman Catholicism is the main faith, but music and dance are often the heart of spiritual and community gatherings, especially during the lively Carnival and Saint John’s festivals.
