The British bought the rights to the Gambia River from Portugal, while the surrounding area came under French control
I love Gambia bc I’ve always seen it as Senegals tongue. Perhaps Senegal is eating Gambia
mhm yes this is my land now. i was eviler and greedier than others and took it. now i sell that land.
It’s crazy to me that people used to be able to just buy entire rivers
they kinda weren’t tbh, they just did murder and crimes to take it lol.
Back then the powers just did that regardless of what the people who lived there felt. Clearly Trump misses those days what with Greenland and Panama.
this will be now how i recognize the whole region on a map of the African continent lol
