UPDATE: Compare to this post's sister, Things Ghana does NOT have.
**********
Cell phones
Advertising for cell phones
Colorful clothing
Children
Mandatory national year of service after graduating from college
Castles/forts (largely used to process and hold literally millions of slaves during the 1700s and 1800s before they were shipped off to the Americas)
Hospitality
Bananas
Plaintains
Fish
Markets
Street vendors
Traffic
Poverty
Illiteracy
Languages (lots of them!)
Litter
Unemployment (though I think this mainly a concept that applies to the middle and upper classes. If you're poor enough, you seem to find *something* to sell on the street...)
Cocoa (Ghana is a huge cocoa exporter)
Christians
Muslims
Peanuts (called groundnuts)
Coconuts
Soap operas (seem to be mainly Mexican and South African from my limited exposure)
Passport photo booths (1/4 the price of CVS Columbia Heights for 4 pictures!)
