	Antananarivo, The City Of A Thousand Warriors: Madagascar's Capital ~ By Rabenilaina Harinia Cyrille
		However long you chose to visit Madagascar, it would be a pity to leave without staying a day in Antananarivo and visiting one of the most important and largest markets in the world: the zoma (Friday in Malagasy).
		If you are planning to stay a few days in Antananarivo, you may organise some tours in the capital’s surroundings on your own.
		It is from this very place that King Andrianampoinimerina launched his campaign to conquer Antananarivo in 1794, laying the basis of Madagascar’s unification under Merina rule.
