Seychelles - International relations and Diplomacy

The Republic of Seychelles, an archipelago in the Indian Ocean, consists of 155 islands and has a population of about 98,000. Gaining independence from Britain in 1976, it operates as a presidential republic with Danny Faure as its current president. The nation’s economy is primarily driven by tourism and fishing, supported by a significant Exclusive Economic Zone. Seychelles is actively involved in regional organizations and plays a vital role in maritime security, particularly in anti-piracy efforts within the Indian Ocean.
