'''గాంబియా''' (ఆంగ్లం : '''The Gambia''') <ref>Gambia changed its name to "The Gambia" because Americans were allegedly confusing Gambia with [[Zambia]]. Little evidence for this alleged confusion was ever offered. The presence of the "The" would somehow rectify this confusion.{{Fact|date=May 2009}}</ref> అధికారిక నామం "రిపబ్లిక్ ఆఫ్ ద గాంబియా", సాధారణంగా ''గాంబియా'' అని పిలువబడుతుంది. పశ్చిమ [[ఆఫ్రికా]] లోని ఒక దేశం. ప్రధాన ఆఫ్రికాలోని ఒక చిన్న దేశం. ఈ దేశం చుట్టూ ఉత్తరాన, తూర్పున మరియు దక్షిణాన [[సెనెగల్]] వ్యాపించి యున్నది. మరియు [[అట్లాంటిక్ మహాసముద్రం]] నకు పశ్చిమాన కొంచె తీరం కలిగివున్నది.దీని రాజధాని [[:en:Banjul|బంజుల్]].
'''The Gambia''' ({{IPAc-en|audio=En-us-Gambia.ogg|ˈ|ɡ|æ|m|b|i|ə}}), officially the '''Republic of The Gambia''', is a country in [[West Africa]] that is almost entirely surrounded by [[Senegal]] with the exception of its western coastline along the [[Atlantic Ocean]]. It is the smallest country within mainland [[Africa]].<ref name="Hoare">Hoare, Ben. (2002) ''The Kingfisher A-Z Encyclopedia'', Kingfisher Publications. p. 11. {{ISBN|0-7534-5569-2}}.</ref>
The Gambia is situated on either side of the [[Gambia River]], the nation's namesake, which flows through the centre of The Gambia and empties into the Atlantic Ocean. It has an area of {{convert|10689|km²|sqmi}} with a population of 1,857,181 as of the April 2013 census. [[Banjul]] is the Gambian capital and the largest cities are [[Serekunda]] and [[Brikama]].
The Gambia shares historical roots with many other West African nations in the [[slave trade]], which was the key factor in the placing and keeping of a colony on the [[Gambia River]], first by the [[Portugal|Portuguese]], during which era it was known as ''A Gâmbia''. Later, on 25 May 1765,<ref>Hughes, Arnold (2008) ''Historical Dictionary of the Gambia''. Scarecrow Press. p. xx. {{ISBN|0810862603}}.</ref> The Gambia was made a part of the [[British Empire]] when the government formally assumed control, establishing the [[Gambia Colony and Protectorate|Province of Senegambia]]. In 1965, The Gambia gained independence under the leadership of [[Dawda Jawara]], who ruled until [[Yahya Jammeh]] seized power in a [[1994 Gambian coup d'état|bloodless 1994 coup]]. [[Adama Barrow]] became The Gambia's third president in January 2017, after defeating Jammeh in [[Gambian presidential election, 2016|December 2016 elections]].<ref name=Wiseman>Wiseman, John A.
