GERMAN COLONIES
TOGO
My STAMPS
1900

Togo became a German Protectorate from 5th Jul 1884 with the German post Office starting from 1st Mar 1889.

Togo was located on the western coast of Africa and occupied a thin 50Km wide strip of the "Slave Coast". The area expands into the hinterland for about 560Km and is 175Km wide from north to south at its widest part. As the area was so small it was difficult to defend militarily and so was forced to surrender to British and French troops on 26th Aug 1914.
