    Abstract:
    The capital of Senegal is Dakar. As of 1995, Senegal had a population of 8.3 million governed by a presidential, pluralist regime. 1994 gross national product and per capita income were, respectively, $5 billion and $610. Per capita income declined by 0.5% per year over the period 1985-94. In 1994, Senegal owed $3.7 billion, then being serviced at $465 million. For the same year, Senegal exported $1.349 billion in goods and services and imported $1.74 billion. As of 1995, the population was growing in size by 2.7% annually. In 1992-93, life expectancy at birth was 49 years, the infant mortality rate was 68 per 1000 births, 40% had access to health services, and 48% had access to drinkable water. Other data are presented on the country's topography, climate and vegetation, demographics, principal cities, population distribution, religions, political structure, economics and finances, foreign commerce, and transportation and communications.
