Cape Verde for Dummies

Hey there! So, "Cape Verde" is actually the name of a group of islands off the coast of West Africa. But, it's also the name of the country that those islands make up. So, when we say "Cape Verde," we're talking about both the islands and the country as a whole. It's kind of like how when we say "the United States," we're talking about the entire country, not just one specific place.

So, to break it down even simpler, "Cape Verde" is the name of a bunch of really beautiful islands and the country those islands belong to. It's like if you had a bunch of Lego blocks and you called them "my Lego creation" - the blocks are cool on their own, but together they make something even cooler. In this case, the islands are cool by themselves, but when you put them together, they make up Cape Verde.

I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions about it.
