Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The culture of Burundi is based on local tradition and the influence of its neighbors, though its prominence has been hindered by civil unrest. Most Burundians live in rural areas. Since the hilly landscape has hindered the development of villages, small clans live as extended families in hilltop compounds called rugos. These families usually farm the surrounding hills to avoid tsetse flies in the valleys. A large portion of the population lacks health care and even safe drinking water, which causes many people to seek traditional and herbal medicine to treat diseases. UNESCO and the Peace Corps have set up programs to help improve living conditions. The majority of the population is Christian, though Islam and forms of animism are also present. Arranged marriages are not uncommon, with the groom''s family sometimes paying a bride price. The two official languages of Burundi are French and Kirundi. Kirundi is the most widely spoken language, though French is used in most written or official documents. A smaller population of Burundians speaks a dialect of Swahili.
