The Gambia - Opis:
- The purpose of this article is to present, through the analysis of available sources, both printed and interactive, a cultural phenomenon that has developed over the centuries in the smallest continental country of Africa, The Gambia. Through the course of West African history, a significant number of ethnic groups have settled off the Atlantic coast, in the historic area of Senegambia. In the twentieth century, these diverse socio-cultural ethnic groups found themselves living within the borders of one state, understanding that they must learn to live in harmony and maintain inner peace. For centuries, religion and customs have dictated peace, bringing harmony to the Gambian nation. The celebration of international events such as The Commonwealth Day became an excellent opportunity to present one’s own culture and heritage on the global scale as well as to make the youngest generations aware of their own cultural roots, teaching them how to preserve their memory of the cultural history and traditions.
