Etymology
The word Ghana comes from the name of an old West African empire called Ghana that was famous long ago. When the British colony called the Gold Coast became independent in 1957, leaders chose the name Ghana to connect the new country to that proud past, so today Ghana reminds people of rich history and culture.
