The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- With a population of around 20,000 people, it is probably the largest lake village in Africa and is very popular with tourists.
- The village was created in the sixteenth or seventeenth centuries by the Tofinu people who took to the lake to avoid Fon warriors who were taking people hostage to sell them to European enslavers.
- Making the shallow waters and islands of Lake Nokoue a haven, the Ganvie villagers are often referred to as "water men" and the area itself is often called the "Venice of Africa." Originally based on farming, the village's main industries other than tourism are now fishing and fish farming.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ganvie article was read about 17,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 51 and blocks with 28: each hit it takes is cut by 11 %.
