Banjul is the capital of The Gambia, Africa's smallest mainland country, home to approximately 32,000 residents in the capital and 2.5 million in the country. It operates on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+0). The Gambia is a peculiar strip of land — just 48 km wide at its widest point — stretching 320 km into the interior of Senegal along the Gambia River, a remnant of British colonial competition with the French. The country is almost entirely surrounded by Senegal. The Gambia gained independence in 1965 and spent 22 years under the authoritarian rule of Yahya Jammeh (1994–2017), who made bizarre claims including having cured AIDS with his own herbal remedy. The country has found its economic footing through tourism (particularly British sun-seekers on the 'smiling coast') and groundnut exports. James Island (now Kunta Kinteh Island), a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was one of the earliest British commercial outposts in Africa and a significant site in the history of the slave trade, made famous by Alex Haley's novel Roots.
