Modern Senegal
In 1946 greater power was
given to the Senegalese when a territorial assembly was established. By 1958 Senegal
achieved limited self-rule within the French Community of Nations. In 1960 French Sudan,
which is now known as Mali,
joined together with Senegal forming the Federation of Mali.
Soon after Senegal seceded & declared itself the
independent Republic of Senegal. Leopold
Sedar Senghor became the first president of Senegal.
