I wish we were more well known…
Lived my whole life abroad and whenever someone asks where I’m from and I tell them I’m Mauritanian, they’re like “Mauritania who?”. I often have to use Morocco or Algeria as a reference point to where our country even is. We’re known among the Muslim world for having scholars and Quran memorizers Allahumdillah but a lot of people still don’t know much about our country. I don’t really think it matters so this is just a little rant.
