Countries that border Gambia
One land neighbour: Senegal. It has a page of its own.
One way in
One land border, and it is Senegal.
Its 1 land border is joint 9th-most in Africa — level with Lesotho. Senegal is the most connected of them, with 5 land borders of its own. Everything else about Gambia is coast, which makes it one of the easier shapes on the Africa board and one of the harder capitals to place — Banjul has no second neighbour to triangulate from.
