Hailed as West Africa's golden child, Ghana is one of Africa's great success stories, reaping the benefits of a stable democracy in the form of fast-paced development.
Ghana is suffused with the most incredible energy.
With its welcoming beaches, gorgeous hinterland, rich culture, vibrant cities, diverse wildlife and easy transport, it's no wonder why Ghana is becoming a popular expatriate destination.
An Overview
Ghana is a west African nation located close to the equator along the Gulf of Guinea and Atlantic Ocean which form its southern boundaries.
Spanning a land mass of over 92,000 square miles, it is bounded to its west by the Ivory Coast, to the North by Burkino Faso and to the east by Togo.
Its geography and ecology are diverse ranging from coastal savannahs to tropical rainforests. Forests and grasslands mixed with southern coastal shrublands dominate the land which also features the world's largest artificial lake, Lake Volta, hills, plains, waterfalls and an extensive river network.
Ghana's 30 million population spans a variety of ethnic, linguistic and religious groups with Christianity the dominant religion practised by almost 70% of the population.
A democratic country, it is ruled by a President who is both head of state and head of government and its growing economic power has made it a local powerhouse within west Africa.
It is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, the African Union, the Non Aligned Movement, the Group of 24 and ECOWAS. Its capital is Accra, a coastal city with a regional population of over 4 million.
