Eastern Malawi Lake Area.
Mitomoni Village, located over a hundred kilometers south of Songea City.
The forests in the eastern Malawi Lake area are quite dense, with tall, clustered trees that are distinctly different from the endless savannas in the northern part of the East African colonies.
In the previous life, even by the 21st century, Tanzania's forest coverage rate remained at around fifty percent. In this era, the forest coverage rate throughout Tanzania is even more substantial.
Unlike tropical rainforests and subtropical forests, the trees in East African forests are not densely packed. There are large gaps between the trees, mainly grassland with very few shrubs, making passage easy, yet without a compass and map, it's easy to lose direction.
