Niger was founded as a French colony in 1922 when it was separated from French West Africa. The territory had been inhabited by various ethnic groups and kingdoms for centuries prior to colonization. Niger gained independence from France on August 3, 1960, becoming a sovereign nation. The modern state of Niger has its roots in these colonial and pre-colonial histories.
