Last update: Dec 23, 2006 02:40:17. Djibouti.org is an unofficial web site.
It is a republic located on an archipelago of the North Atlantic Ocean, off the western coast of Africa. The previously-uninhabited islands were discovered and colonized by the Portuguese in the 15th century; they subsequently became a trading centre for African slaves.
