Living in Senegal
Senegal is a West African nation with a long Atlantic coastline that is briefly interrupted by the territory of the Gambia, which protrudes into Senegal as it follows the path of the River Gambia. Senegal’s capital city is Dakar, and this is located on a small peninsula that extends outwards from Senegal’s coastline. Senegal operates a democracy, and it is often praised by foreign observers who view it as an ideal model of a democratic transition in a developing country. Senegal has a very varied economy, including oil, seafood, gold and chemicals. India is Senegal’s largest export market, but the United States is also significant. However, despite consistent economic growth in the past decade, unemployment does remain high and income inequality is severe. French is the official language of Senegal, and Islam is the dominant religion. There is a small Christian minority however, and even smaller groupings of Buddhists and those who practice traditional African faiths. Senegalese cuisine involves a lot of seafood due to the country’ coastal location; rice and couscous are common staples too. Wrestling is highly popular, particularly amongst young working-class men. The Senegalese football team have previously qualified for World Cup tournaments but have never won the competition.
