Talk:Dar es Salaam Region

Oi
Not only does this article exclusively talk about the city of the same name instead of the region, it also contradicts that article's translation of the name. Joffeloff 13:15, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

''Dar-es-salaam is the biggest city in Tanzania. It was the former capital city. Although Dodoma is the current capital of Tanzania, Dar-es-salaam holds the status of being its Commercial Capital. It is located in the Eastern Coast and is the main port of the Country. It name "Dar-es-salaam" comes from Arabic language, meaning "abode of peace".''

''To most travellers, Dar es Salaam is just a convenient port of call on the way to more exotic destinations of Zanzibar, the game parks, Pemba or Mafia Islands. This is a great pity, because “Dar”, as it is affectionately called by aficionados of the city, is a fascinating rabbit warren of a tropical port, often surprising the unwary wanderer with scenes of breathtaking beauty. While Dodoma has been (somewhat absurdly) appointed as the new capital of Tanzania, Dar is the real capital, a hustling, bustling seaport that straddles some of the most important sea routes on earth.''

I removed this from the article as it seems to be completely about the city, which already has its own article. I moved it here in case it has anything that should be merged into the city article. --Galaxiaad 01:14, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
