History
Ghanaian immigrants in France are a very recent group of immigrants.[1] Even if there were some Ghanaians before the 2000s, they were not very visible, embedded in the big community of Africans in France (who were mostly composed of francophone Africans). However, this community has become more and more numerous.[citation needed]
Distribution
There are Ghanaians in the banlieues (suburbs) of Paris, but also in Alsace because it's a region close to Germany, a country with a strong Ghanaian community.[citation needed]
