Kilimanjaro to the distinguished Maasai worriers, the Datogas and Hadzabes "Bushmen" who still live the Stone Age lifestyle and definitely the Sahil "coastal people" of Dar-es-Salaam, Mafia, Zanzibar, Pangani and Bagamoyo alongside the Indian Ocean, the Makonde of Mtwara specialists in carvings.
These tribes are bound together with one common language "Kiswahili" which is the National language of Tanzania, East and Central Africa.
