Hello. I would like some information on Burkina Faso. 
 It use to be called Upper Volta. 
 What can you tell me about the etymology of Burkina Faso? 
 Burkina comes from the Mossi language and means "upright". Faso comes from the Dyula language and means "fatherland". 
 Wow, that is interesting. Are there any other facts about the etymology of Burkina Faso you can share? 
 The President, Thomas Sankara, renamed the country to Upper Volta in 1984. 
 What can you tell me about the geography of Burkina Faso? 
 The cheetah, the Caracal, the spotted hyena, and the African wild dog live in Burkina Faso. 
 I have never heard of the Caracal before. What is that? 
 It's an African lynx. 
 Burkina Faso seems like a really cool place to visit. 
 Yes, just don't expect to visit the ocean, it's landlocked. 
 Thank you for the help! 
 You're welcome.
