 Most of the terrain of Mozambique is covered by wooded savanna, grassland with a scattering of trees but an open canopy.In the northern part of the country this is miombo woodland, dominated by "Brachystegia" trees, covering about 70% of the country.In drier areas further south, mopane woodland predominates, with "Acacia" woodland in some areas in the south and in riverside locations in the north.
