The Republic of Malawi, formerly Nyasaland is a tiny landlocked country in south east Africa, north of Mozambique. Its capital is Lilongwe.  It is one of the smallest countries in Africa.  Lake Malawi occupies about a third of its area. From 1891, it was a British colony.  As Nyasaland it became a protectorate within the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland in 1953, in 1964 it became independent under Queen Elizabeth II as Malawi and in 1966 became a fully fledged republic.

Malawi’s first stamps were issued in 1964.  Previously stamps were issued under the names of British Central Africa Protectorate and later Nyasaland and the Nyasaland Protectorate.
