•The Only Place on Earth Where Four Nations' Borders Meet

The great Mossi Latunya is a 1700 meter long wall of water on the Zambezi River on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe .
It pumps water so hard that it creates a mist plume that you can see from kilometers away.
The only place where you can be between four countries at the same time is the only one in the world.
The story about how this border came to be is pretty crazy, and it's still unfolding.
Britain asked Germany to let them take what was then the Sultanate of Zanzibar, which was right next to Germany 's territory in Tanzania .
In exchange, Britain would give Germany this little island north of its own coast called Illegal Land and this little strip of land here.
The new German Chancellor, Leo von Caprivi is so proud of this new piece of land that he names it after himself.
After two world wars being owned by South Africa and the people of Namibia gaining independence, the land became a permanent part of Namibia .
