Mokambo

Mokambo is a settlement in Haut-Katanga Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The country's census tables compiled by City Population list it with 11,117 inhabitants at the census of 1 July 1984 and an estimated 20,079 inhabitants on 1 July 2004, and GeoNames, which places it at latitude -12.42765 and longitude 28.34684, carries a newer population figure of 34,762 for the surrounding settlement. According to the digital elevation model GeoNames uses, the site stands about 1334 metres above sea level, and it keeps Central Africa Time (UTC+2). Mokambo is not a provincial capital, so it appears in the census tables as one of the country's smaller towns rather than as the seat of a province. The atlas places it in the Middle Africa subregion of Africa and treats it as a city for browsing purposes.
