At the beginning, I can say that there are many differences between Mauritania and the United Kingdom in culture, food, weather and daily life.

I am going to choose the weather to compare between them because it is one of the biggest differences.

In Mauritania the climate is hot and dry for most of the year. Temperatures are often very high, especially in summer. In some places it can reach around 45 degrees. However, the temperature usually increase when you go away from the Atlantic Ocean toward the desert.

Rain is very rare in Mauritania. It only rains about two months in the year, and some areas cannot get any rain for a whole year because there is a lot of desert.

The winters are also warmer than in the UK, especially during the day.

However, in the UK the weather is mild but very changeable. It often rains, especially in autumn and winter, and the sky is usually cloudy.

Summers are generally cool. Last summer was amazing for me because the temperature rarely become very high.

But the weather can change several time in one day.

Overall, the UK has a cool, wet and unpredictable climate, while Mauritania has a hot and dry climate.
