... A fantastic and "rare" new African country in my collection...a tiny odd shaped and totally unknown country to me...Big thanks to Maick (A journey of Postcards ) for this wonderful surprise!!♥

Togo, officially the Togolese Republic, is a country in West Africa bordered by Ghana to the west, Benin to the east, and Burkina Faso to the north. It extends south to the Gulf of Guinea, on which the capital Lomé, the largest city of the country is located.

 The country is a  tropical, sub-Saharan nation, highly dependent on agriculture, with a climate that provides good growing seasons.

Togo is one of the smallest and also regarded as one of the poorest countries in all of Africa.
