Formerly known as French Guinea ((フランス語:Guinée française)), the modern country is sometimes referred to as Guinea-Conakry in order to distinguish it from other parts of the wider region of the same name, such as Guinea-Bissau and Equatorial Guinea.〔See, for example, (Univ. of Iowa map ), (Music Videos of Guinea Conakry – Clips Guineens ), (The Anglican Diocese of Guinea – Conakry ), (Canal France International's English-language page for Guinea Conakry )〕 Guinea has a population of 10.5 million and an area of .〔 Guinea is a republic. The president is directly elected by the people and is head of state and head of government. The unicameral Guinean National Assembly is the legislative body of the country, and its members are also directly elected by the people. The judicial branch is led by the Guinea Supreme Court, the highest and final court of appeal in the country.〔Guinea Election, 16 November 2013, Reuters, http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/11/16/us-guinea-election-idUSBRE9AF0AP20131116〕 Guinea is a predominantly Islamic country, with Muslims representing 85 percent of the population.〔(【引用サイトリンク】)[http://www.uiowa.edu/~africart/toc/countries/Guinea-Conakry.html">title=Visual Geography )〕 Guinea's people belong to twenty-four ethnic groups. French, the official language of Guinea, is the main language of communication in schools, in government administration, in the media, and among the country's security forces, but more than twenty-four indigenous languages are also spoken.

In 2011 the United States government claimed that torture by security forces, and abuse of women and children (e.g. female genital mutilation) were ongoing abuses of human rights. The country is named after the Guinea region. Guinea is a traditional name for the region of Africa that lies along the Gulf of Guinea. It stretches north through the forested tropical regions and ends at the Sahel. The English term Guinea comes directly from the Portuguese word ''Guiné'', which emerged in the mid-15th century to refer to the lands inhabited by the ''Guineus'', a generic term for the black African peoples below the Senegal River, as opposed to the 'tawny' Zenaga Berbers, above it, whom they called ''Azenegues'' or Moors. The country was at the core of the 2014 Ebola outbreak. ==History== (詳細はFrench West Africa. Guinea declared its independence from France on 2 October 1958. Since independence until the presidential election of 2010, Guinea was governed by a number of autocratic rulers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UN Human Development Report 2009 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「guinea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
