mar 6, 1957 - Ghana independent from the UK
Description:
On this day, Ghana declared independence from the United Kingdom. It was initially a British Commonwealth (like Canada or Australia), but fully severed ties with the UK after only a couple years. For much of its early history Ghana struggled with a series of coups and military governance. Today Ghana struggles with poverty, but has a healthy democracy and growing economy.Added to timeline:
