background

The Federation of French Possessions in West Africa, French West Africa , was in dissolution in 1958. Until 1959, Félix Houphouët-Boigny presented himself as a clear opponent of the solution on the Ivory Coast of France. The French President Charles de Gaulle himself, however, suggested independence to the French colonies while maintaining a loose tie to France. Shortly thereafter, relevant documents were signed with France and on August 7, 1960 independence was proclaimed under the name of the Republic of "Côte d´Ivoire".
