What's one musical instrument locally from your country?

Mine (Zimbabwean 🇿🇼) is the mbira.
For a feel of the sound: https://youtu.be/R5RMYh-n3LU
Jah Prayzah the guy singing is a renowned musician.
They seem to be using the mbira in modernized covers, but the metal pestle order seem the same as the more traditional looking ones.
P/S I'm not self promoting the YouTube link. It just shows how the mbira sounds unedited.
The cajon in Peru is emblematic of traditional Creole music that is often played in songs during lunch or party meals. Just hearing it makes me hungry!!
Btw the mbira has a beautiful sound, do you know if it’s difficult to learn?
Thank you! I think the mbira requires similar dexterity to a piano if I'm not mistaken.
Makes sense. Cool!!
