5. The islands have a number of endagered species of animals living on it
6. The highest peak is Pico do Fogo, which is an active volcano
7. The islands were an active part of the slave trade.
8. There are no railways on any of these islands
9. Only about 10% of the land is suitable for agriculture, meaning most of the food is imported
