THE SENEGAL

In the land of Teranga!

Located in the westernmost part of the continent, Senegal is bordered by Mauritania, Mali, Guinea and Guinea-Bissau. It surrounds Gambia, a small English-speaking country. With a tropical and dry climate, Senegal has 16.7 million inhabitants, a quarter of whom live in the Dakar region (0.3% of the territory).

This West African country is divided into 14 regions. The official language is French, but Wolof, Fulani and Serer are also spoken there. The population is of Muslim, Catholic or animist faith.

Culture Senegalese has long been described in world-renowned literary works, in particular through personalities such as Léopold Sédar Senghor, both poet and statesman, champion of negritude and emblematic figure of the Francophonie.
