Ghana became the first black nation in sub-Saharan Africa to achieve independence from colonial rule. Accra, the populous capital city, is the hub for commerce, manufacturing, communications. The city offers a blend of modern, colonial, and traditional African architecture. There are approximately 75 ethnic groups within Ghana of whom 70% live in the southern half of the country.
