- Timbuktu, a trading city in central Mali, is still referred to as the most isolated remote location in the world.

- Timbuktu started as a summer encampment for nomadic tribes of the region.

- During World War II Timbuktu was used to house prisoners of war.

- Rice is the predominant crop grown in the area.

- In the 14th Century it became the commercial, religious and cultural center of the West African empires of Mali and Songhai.
