The Republic of Djibouti; Arabic: \u062c\u0645\u0647\u0647\u0648\u0631\u30a4\u0647\u30a4\u062c\u30a4\u0628\u0648\u062a\u30a4; Djibouti, also known as La R \u00e9 publique de Djibouti in French, is located on the west coast of the Gulf of Aden in northeastern Africa. It is a key gateway from the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean, bordering Somalia to the southeast, Eritrea to the north, and Ethiopia to the west, southwest, and south. The country covers an area of 23200 square kilometers and is divided into one city and five regions. The capital city of Djibouti has a population of approximately 1.13 million, mainly consisting of the Issa and Afar ethnic groups. [1]
Before the colonial invasion, Djibouti was ruled by three Sudanese kings: Houza, Tajura, and Obok. France began its invasion in 1850 and occupied the entire territory of Djibouti in 1888. In 1896, France established the “French Somalia” colonial government in Djibouti. In 1946, it became a French overseas territory and was renamed as the “French Territory of Afar and Issa” in 1967. The French government granted it actual autonomy. On December 31, 1975, France declared its agreement to Djibouti’s independence. On June 27, 1977, Djibouti declared independence and named itself the Republic of Djibouti.
The strategic position of the Republic of Djibouti is very important. It has the largest military base of the US military in Africa, the largest military base of the French military overseas and the support base of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. Djibouti is one of the least developed countries in the world, with scarce natural resources, weak industrial and agricultural foundations, and unstable political situation. In 2021, Djibouti’s gross domestic product was 3.371 billion US dollars, with an economic growth rate of 4.3%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
