About Senegal

Senegal is a country in West Africa. Senegal is bordered by Mauritania in the north, Mali to the east, Guinea to the southeast, and Guinea-Bissau to the southwest. Senegal also borders The Gambia and Senegal also shares a maritime border with Cape Verde.

The name “Senegal” comes from the Wolof “Sunuu Gaal”, which means “Our Boat”. Senegal has an estimated population of about 15 million.

Senegal’s capital of Dakar is by far the largest city in Senegal, with over two million residents. The second most populous city is Touba, with half a million people.

Senegal has a tropical climate with pleasant heat throughout the year.

Senegal became independent in 1960 and Léopold Sédar Senghor was Senegal’s first president

Senegal has a wide variety of ethnic groups and, as in most West African countries, several languages are widely spoken. The Wolof are the largest single ethnic group in Senegal at 43%; the Fula and Toucouleur (24%) are the second biggest group, followed by the Serer (14.7%), then others such as Jola (4%), Mandinka (3%), Maures, Soninke, Bassari and many smaller communities (9%).

About 50,000 Europeans (mostly French) and Lebanese as well as smaller numbers of Mauritanians and Moroccans live in Senegal, mainly in the cities.
