Mozambique is a country in East Africa and faces outward toward Madagascar across the Mozambique Channel. Classified by the UN as one of the least developed countries and a Heavily Indebted Poor Country, Mozambique is one of the most poverty-stricken countries in the world with a GDP per capita of a mere USD455 (in the bottom five in the world). The Islamic State occupies the coastal area because of the number of excellent harbors and has proclaimed one of the cities in the area as its new capital. Though once a Portuguese colony, in 1995, Mozambique joined the British Commonwealth as an exception and has remained a member state to this day.
