=== Football in Portland is very popular and they have football games every week like we do. Portland does not have a Football team in the NFL or AFL they have a minor league and college football team. I the Summer Portland gets around the same temperatures we do around here between 70-90 degrees,this usually is their dry season. The population Density in Portland is 148.6 people a square mile, Portland is not the capitol of Oregon but it is the largest city. ===

===Both Lilongwe and Portland use a lot of buses because they are fairly busy places. Both Malawi and Portland also have a first language of English that they speak in most parts of them. Winter tends to be their wet season. just like us they get lots of snow and precipitation and it all adds up and they get soaked.===

===Malawi alone is a pretty interesting place. They play a lot of soccer because they have a lot of plains and flat areas for them to play. In the Summer the temperatures can reach up to 100 degrees and that can be bad for crops. One of the main exports in Malawi is Raw Tobacco, in 2005 they were named 12th for production of tobacco, and as of 2010 Malawi is the worlds leading producer in barley leaf tobacco.===
