Bero River

	Bero River The Bero is a river in southern Angola. Its mouth is at Little Fish Bay in the Atlantic Ocean on the north side of the city of Moçâmedes in Namibe Province. History In 1849 Portuguese colonists from Brazil started farms along the river. During a period of conflict with the Ovimbundu in 1862, the Portuguese stationed troops on both banks of the Bero. By the late 19th and early 20th century, the Bero River marshes supported fruit, cotton, sugar and coffee farms, as well as providing fresh water to passing steamships although it was noted that the might be only a foot of water in the river in the dry season. Work to desilt the river and reinforce its banks near the river mouth was done in the 2000s for flood control. The plant, Euphorbia berotica, was named after the river because it was discovered in the area. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

Moçâmedes has a cool dry climate and desert vegetation, because it is near the Namib Desert. History The area was first explored by the Portuguese in 1785 and claimed for Portugal by Luís Cândido Cordeiro Pinheiro Furtado, who had been sent there in the frigate ''Loanda'' by the then governor-general of Angola, Baron Moçâmedes (Portuguese: ''Barão de Mossâmedes''), who also sent an overland expedition headed by Gregório José Mendes to rendezvous with Furtado. They renamed the bay Moçâmedes in honour of the baron.

	Ovimbundu The Ovimbundu, also known as the Southern Mbundu, are a Bantu ethnic group who live on the Bié Plateau of central Angola and in the coastal strip west of these highlands. As the largest ethnic group in Angola, they make up 38 percent of the country's population. Overwhelmingly the Ovimbundu follow Christianity, mainly the ''Igreja Evangélica Congregacional de Angola (IECA)'', founded by American missionaries, and the Catholic Church. However, some still retain beliefs and practices from African traditional religions. History The origins of the Ovimbundu are Bantu populations who drifted in from the North, over the last millennium, and formed local/regional groups which slowly became political units and foci of social identity: M'Balundu, Sele, Wambo, Bieno and others. They developed a sophisticated agriculture, completed by the breeding of small animals (chicken, goats, swine) as well as of a modicum of cows bought from the farmer-herders to the South ( Nyaneka-Nkhumbi, O ...

picture info	Euphorbia Berotica ''Euphorbia'' is a very large and diverse genus of flowering plants, commonly called spurge, in the family Euphorbiaceae. "Euphorbia" is sometimes used in ordinary English to collectively refer to all members of Euphorbiaceae (in deference to the type genus), not just to members of the genus. Euphorbias range from tiny annual plants to large and long-lived trees. The genus has roughly 2,000 members, making it one of the largest genera of flowering plants. It also has one of the largest ranges of chromosome counts, along with ''Rumex'' and ''Senecio''. ''Euphorbia antiquorum'' is the type species for the genus ''Euphorbia''. It was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 in ''Species Plantarum''. Some euphorbias are widely available commercially, such as poinsettias at Christmas. Some are commonly cultivated as ornamentals, or collected and highly valued for the aesthetic appearance of their unique floral structures, such as the crown of thorns plant (''Euphorbia milii'').
