Senegambia, also known in Dutch as Bovenkust ("Upper Coast"), was the collective noun for the fortifications and trading posts owned by the Dutch West India Company (DWIC) in the region now known as Senegal. The main purpose of these trading posts was to obtain slaves in order to ship them to the Americas. The government of the territory was based on Gorée. In 1677, the Dutch lost this island to France. The next year, the French also conquered all DWIC trading posts on the Senegalese coast as well as the island of Arguin.

  • Senegambia (ook wel Bovenkust genoemd) was de verzamelnaam voor de forten en factorijen die de West-Indische Compagnie (WIC) in het huidige Senegal heeft gehad. Het voornaamste doel van de handelsposten was het ronselen van slaven die naar Amerika verscheept zouden worden. Het bestuur van het gebied zat in Gorée. In 1677 ging dit eiland over in Franse handen. De Fransen veroverden een jaar later ook alle factorijen die de Compagnie aan de Senegalese kust had, en het eiland Arguin. (nl)
