OR

Seychelles is an archipelago nation of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean, some 1,500 kilometres (930 mi) east of mainland Africa, northeast of the island of Madagascar.



Did you know that the Seychellois society is essentially matriarchal. Mothers tend to be dominant in the household, controlling most
current expenditures and looking after the interests of the children. Unwed mothers are the societal norm, and the law requires fathers to support their children.
