Good afternoon! Can you give me some information about human rights in Mauritania please? 
 Hi, in 1905, the French colonial administration declared an end of slavery in Mauritania with very little success.In 2010, the US State Department Human Rights Report state the government efforts were not sufficient to enforce anti-slavery laws. 
 It doesn't sound like they've made much progress in a century. Where did their slaves come from? 
 Yeah, sad! It doesn't saw exactly but it appears Mauritania is a country in northwest Africa. As of 2018, an estimated 90,000 people are enslaved which is 2% of the population. 
 Wow! That is really surprising for today's times. Does the population there have many different ethnic groups? 
 Yes, 13% of the population largely consists of various ethnic groups of West African descent. 
 Do you have any information about their societal standards? Are they determined by the majority religions? 
 Good question! While there's not any details about enforced ways of living due to religion, the Abdallahi government is corrupt and has restricted access to government information.The dominant language is Hassaniya which is an Arabic dialect due the largely nomadic population. 
 Do they seem to place much value on educating their citizens? 
 Based on the details, there's not anything suggesting education is a priority or allowed due to their widely known slave population. Abdallahi finally resigned in July 2018 and Abdel Aziz became president by a 52% majority. 
 52% doesn't sound like much of a vote of confidence. Thank you for all the interesting information today. 
 My pleasure!
Mauritania
