		To a great extent, the history of modern Togo mirrors the history of colonial Africa, as European powers struggled to gain control of overseas territories.Togoland, of which modern Togo was formerly a part, was colonised by the Germans in 1894.
		Their administration was overthrown by a joint Anglo-French force early in World War I after which the country was divided into a French-controlled eastern region and a British-occupied western sector, each of which was governed under a League of Nations mandate.
		For the next 200 years, the coastal region was a major raiding center for Europeans in search of slaves, earning Togo and the surrounding region the name "the Slave Coast." In a 1884 treaty signed at Togoville, Germany declared a protectorate over a stretch of territory along the coast and gradually extended its control inland.
