Proposed cession of the Gambia to France
text:
The proposed cession of The Gambia to France was a political issue in the United Kingdom in the late 19th century. It was raised in both 1870 and from 1874 to 1876. Both times it faced significant opposition from both the native population and the British merchants based in The Gambia. It was raised again in the 1890s as a possible exchange for French fishing rights off the Newfoundland coast.
