Togo was historically part of various West African kingdoms before becoming a German colony in the late 19th century. After World War I, it was administered by France and gained independence in 1960. Since then, it has experienced periods of authoritarian rule and political tensions but continues to develop its economy, focusing on agriculture and trade.
