SOCIETY AND CULTURE
Comoros
SOCIETY AND CULTURE
Comoran society and culture reflect the influences of
Islam
and the traditions of East Africa. The former provides the
basis
for religion and law; the East African influence is
evident in
the language, a Swahili dialect, and in a number of
pre-Islamic
customs. Western, primarily French, influences are also
prevalent, particularly in the modern educational sector,
the
civil service, and cultural affairs.
Data as of August 1994
