South Africa's role in BRICS


South Africa's economy is recognised as the most developed, diversified and technologically oriented on the African continent. The state supports the idea of a multipolar world, which it implements together with its BRICS partners. Participation in the merger, according to experts, has helped South Africa attract good foreign investment and expand its presence in foreign markets. Trade ties with China, where the republic supplies diamonds, platinum, gold, copper, chrome, aluminium and cellulose, are growing. Analysts predict that South Africa will try to increase exports, including goods with high added value, in the coming years.

South African Industry


Main industries: mining, steel, textiles, chemical, food, ship repair, automotive.

South African culture


The eclectic culture of this country has been shaped by historical events. Multicultural South Africa surprises the whole planet with its diversity of traditions. The Republic has made a huge contribution to the development of the global music industry. According to historians, it was in South Africa that South African jazz originated, hip-hop emerged and kwaito, a youth subculture with elements of rap, reggae and other styles, was born.

South African musicians are often found among the participants and winners of many international competitions and festivals. When they take to the stage, few people can resist this infectious energy and keep from dancing and singing along!

South Africa in international organisations


The Republic of South Africa is a member of the United Nations (UN), the African Union (AU), the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the Southern African Development Community (SADC), and the African Development Bank (ADB).
