If you want Portuguese-speaking Africa, go to Sao Tome or Mozambique, both of which are lovely.
If you want something as developed as the Middle East or SE Asia, go to Kenya, Ghana, South Africa (unsafe), Namibia (fantastic but not cheap), Botswana or maybe Gambia. You won't get anywhere in a week except the outskirts of the capital, so you need to choose a tiny country or one with a particularly attractive capital.
