Cape Verde's history has been marked by periodic droughts caused by shifting ocean and wind current patterns. Rainfall is extremely variable, with half a year's rainfall frequently occurring in a single storm. This profile of the country provides information on drought and other issues in support of the planning and relief operations of the Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance. First, information is provided on certain national characteristics, including, inter alia: geography; governmental structure; ethnic groups; currency; languages; religion; population; health; economy; agriculture; communications; and transportation. Then, the country's vulnerability to disaster is assessed, with reference to the threats posed to Cape Verde by drought, hurricanes, floods, landslides, volcanic and seismic activity, water shortages, and accidents. Finally, the country's degree of preparedness in responding to disaster situations (e.g., health resources, food storage and distribution capacity) and the ability of A.I.D. and other international assistance organizations to provide disaster assistance are evaluated. The report also notes the country's virtual absence of natural resources
