Do you know...

Article ‘The’ was added to country’s name (The Gambia) to separate it from Zambia. I guess Zambia and Gambia were mixed up a lot.

- Mandinkas (a tribe in The Gambia) cannot pronounce ‘g’ so they say the country’s name ‘Kambia’.

- Country is divided in five regions: Western Region (WR), North Bank, Lower River Region (LLR), Upper River Region (URR), Central River Region (CRR). I live in WR, not too far from the Atlantic ocean.
