GhanaInfos about Ghana | The Republic of Ghana is a country of Africa in West Africa.It borders Côte dIvoire to the west, Burkina Faso to the north, Togo to the east, and the Gulf of Guinea to the south.
It was inhabited in pre-colonial times by a number of ancient kingdoms, including the Ga Adangbes on the eastern coast, inland Ashanti kingdom and various Fante states along the coast and in land. Trade with European states flourished after contact with the Portuguese in the 15th century, and the British established a crown colony, Gold Coast, in 1874.
It was the first sub-Saharan country to obtain independence from colonial rule. Upon achieving independence from the United Kingdom in 1957, the name Ghana was chosen for the new nation to reflect the ancient Empire of Ghana that once roamed the west of Africa. On March 6, 2007, Ghana celebrated the 50th anniversary of its independence.
