About Togo
Togo is a narrow West African republic running from the Gulf of Guinea coast at Lome north to Burkina Faso. Once a German protectorate and later split between Britain and France, it became independent in 1960. The Gnassingbe family has held power since 1967. It joined the Commonwealth in 2022 and holds some of the world's largest phosphate deposits.
