Tsaratanana

Tsaratanana lies on the Kamoro River in the northern interior of Madagascar. The surrounding country forms part of the river basin that drains towards the island's western coast. The region has been home to the Marofotsy, a community with varied origins including connections to the central highlands and Sihanaka country. Its rivers and valleys lie between the Merina highlands to the south and the Sakalava lands of the northwest.
