Botswana is surrounded on all sides by South Africa. It is literally a country within a country. But like almost everywhere on earth, it is not immune to the allures of heavy metal culture. The BBC even did a story on it.

Er… Actually Lesotho is surrounded by South Africa. Botswana is North of South Africa. There are tons of bands of all genres here in South Africa and the surrounding countries. Some really great ones too. People should really check them out.
