Kazakhstan

We are skyping with Kazakhstan!!! The Kazakhstan slogan is Strength is our Unity. They are telling us about the huge source of minerals in their country, such as Gold, and Iron! Kazakhstan is a very diverse country with 121 nationalities, and 3 major languages. The country of Kazakhstan serves as a bridge between Europe and Asia with their closest allies being Russia and China.

They are now telling us about the similarities between Kazakhstan and the United States! Astana, Kazakhstan is very similar to New York City, New York. The location of Texas is very similar to the location of Shymkent, Kazakhstan.  They are both located in the center and are along the southern border. The eagle is a symbol for both the United States and Kazakhstan! Many Kazakhstanis live in Texas for work, and study! - Tristen
