Seychelles - An Overview

The official name of Seychelles is the Republic of Seychelles. It comprises approximately 115 islands situated in the Indian Ocean, at the easternmost end of the sea called Somali. Its capital city Victoria is the largest in the Country and is a famous tourist spot with various attractions. Seychelles shares its boundary with the Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, and Maldives as well as the Chagos Archipelago. The population of this country is quite less.
