MW — Malawi

Malawi is a landlocked country in southeastern Africa known as the 'Warm Heart of Africa' for its friendly people. Lake Malawi, the third-largest lake in Africa, dominates the eastern border and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with more species of fish than any other lake. Lilongwe is the capital, while Blantyre is the largest city and commercial center. The Malawian Kwacha (MWK) is the national currency. For developers, the MW country code maps to en-MW and ny-MW locales for English and Chichewa (also called Chewa or Nyanja). The .mw domain serves Malawi's web presence, and +265 is the dialing code. Malawi's growing mobile connectivity, driven by affordable smartphones and mobile money services, is expanding the addressable digital market. The Chichewa language locale is increasingly important as more applications aim to serve users in their native African languages.
