Senegambia, officially the Senegambia Confederation or Confederation of Senegambia,[1] was a loose confederation in the late 20th century between the West African countries of Senegal and its neighbour The Gambia, which is almost completely surrounded by Senegal. The confederation was founded on 1 February 1982 following an agreement between the two countries signed on 12 December 1981. It was intended to promote cooperation between the two countries, but was dissolved by Senegal on 30 September 1989 after The Gambia refused to move closer toward union.[2] The Senegambia Confederation should not be confused with the historic Senegambia region, generally shortened to the Senegambia.
