 Vyaka vya m'ma 900-1600: Ŵasilamu na Ŵapwitikizi 
Ŵamalonda Ŵachiarabu ndiwo ŵakalemba nkhani yakwamba yakukhwaskana na charu cha Gambia mu vyaka vya m'ma 900 na 900 C.E. Mu vyaka vya m'ma 900 C.E., Ŵasilamu awo ŵakaguliskanga vinthu na ŵasambizgi ŵakakhazikika mu malo ghanandi gha ku West Africa. Magulu ghose ghaŵiri agha ghakaŵa na nthowa zakwendeskera malonda mu Sahara, ndipo ŵanthu ŵakendeskanga malonda ghakurughakuru.


Kuzakafika mu 11 panji 12 C.E., mathemba gha maufumu nga ni Takrur (ufumu uwo ukaŵa kumpoto kwa Mlonga wa Senegal), Ghana wakale, na Gao, ghakazgoka Ŵasilamu ndipo ŵakimika Ŵasilamu awo ŵakamanyanga Ciarabu kuti ŵateŵeterenge mu nyumba zawo.Easton P (1999) "Education and Koranic Literacy in West Africa" . IK Notes on Indigenous Knowledge and Practices, n° 11, World Bank Group. pp. 1–4 Kukwambilira kwa vyaka vya m'ma 1400, chigaŵa chikuru cha Gambia chikaŵa mu ufumu wa Mali. Mu vyaka vya m'ma 1400, Ŵapwitikizi ŵakafika pa malo agha pa nyanja.

 Boma la Chingelezi na la France 
Mu 1588, António, Prior wa ku Crato, uyo wakakhumbanga kukhala pa ufumu wa Portugal, wakaguliska wanangwa wa malonda pa Mlonga wa Gambia ku ŵamalonda ŵa ku England. Makalata agho Fumukazi Elizabeth I yikalemba ghakakhozga fundo iyi. Mu 1618, Themba James I la ku England likazomerezga kampani yinyake ya ku England kuti yikaguliskenge vinthu ku Gambia na ku Gold Coast (uko sono ni Ghana). Pakati pa 1651 na 1661, vigaŵa vinyake vya charu cha Gambia Chirwa cha Andrew mu Mlonga wa Gambia kusazgapo Fort Jakob, na St. Chirwa cha Mary (lero ni Banjul) na Fort Jillifree ‡ vikaŵa pasi pa muwuso wa Courland na Semigallia (lero ni Latvia), ndipo vikagulika na Karonga Jacob Kettler. Mu 1664, England yikapoka malo agha.

Kuumaliro wa vyaka vya m'ma 1600 na m'ma 1800, ufumu wa Britain na wa France ukalutilira kulimbana kuti uŵe na mazaza pa ndyali na malonda mu vigaŵa vya Senegal na Gambia. Ufumu wa Britain ukaŵa na mazaza pa charu cha Gambia apo ŵasilikari awo ŵakalongozgekanga na Augustus Keppel ŵakafika ku charu ichi mu 1758. Mu 1783, pa phangano lakwamba la Versailles, Britain likapoka Mlonga wa Gambia, kweni France likalutilira kuŵa na malo ghacoko waka ku Albreda kumpoto kwa mlonga uwu. Paumaliro, charu ichi chikapelekeka ku Britain mu 1856.

 Ukapolo (Vyaka vya m'ma 1700-1900) 
Ŵanthu pafupifupi 3 miliyoni ŵakakoleka wuzga mu chigaŵa ichi mu vyaka 300 ivyo ŵakaguliskiranga ŵazga. Tikumanya yayi unandi wa ŵanthu awo ŵakaŵa ŵazga pa nkhondo izo zikachitika pambere malonda gha ŵazga ghandambe. Ŵanandi awo ŵakakoleka ŵakaguliskika ku ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe na ŵanthu ŵa ku Africa. Ŵanyake ŵakakoleka pa nkhondo za mafuko, ŵanyake ŵakaguliskika cifukwa ca ngongoli zambura kulipika, ndipo ŵanyake ŵanandi ŵakakoleka waka.Park, Mungo Travels in the Interior of Africa v. II, Chapter XXII – War and Slavery .


Pakwamba, ŵamalonda ŵakatumanga ŵanthu ku Europe kuti ŵakagwirenge ntchito ya ŵateŵeti m'paka mu ma 1800, apo ntchito yikakura ku West Indies na North America. Mu 1807, boma la Britain likalekeska malonda gha ŵazga mu ufumu wake wose. Kweniso likayezgayezga kumazga malonda gha ŵazga mu Gambia, kweni vikatondeka. Ngalaŵa za ŵazga izo zikaŵa mu nyanja ya Atlantic zikaweleraso ku Gambia, ndipo ŵanthu awo ŵakaŵa ŵazga ŵakaŵafumiska pa cirwa ca MacCarthy uko ŵakalindiliranga kuti ŵakambe umoyo uphya. Mu 1816, ŵasilikari ŵa Britain ŵakazenga msumba wa Bathurst (uno ni Banjul).

Gambia Colony and Protectorate (1821–1965)

Mu vyaka vyakulondezgapo, nyengo zinyake Banjul wakaŵa pasi pa muwuso wa kazembe wa Britain ku Sierra Leone. Mu 1888, charu cha Gambia chikazgoka chikaya.

Mu 1889, boma la Britain na la France ŵakakolerana kuti malo agha ghaŵe na mphaka. Mu 1891, ŵalara ŵa boma la England na France ŵakasuska ivyo ŵakachita.

Mu 1919, ŵanthu ŵa mitundu yakupambanapambana pakati pa Traveling Commissioner J. K. McCallum na mwanakazi wa Wolof Fatou Khan ŵakakwiyiska boma.

Pa nyengo ya Nkhondo Yachiŵiri ya Charu Chose, ŵasilikari ŵanyake ŵakarwa nkhondo pamoza na ŵanyawo. Nangauli ŵasilikari aŵa ŵakarwa nkhondo mu Burma, kweni ŵanyake ŵakafwira kufupi na kukwawo. Ku Banjul kukaŵa ndege za ŵasilikari ŵa boma la United States.

Nkhondo Yachiŵiri ya Caru Cose yikati yamara, vinthu vikasintha comene. Pamanyuma pa mavoti gha mu 1962, boma la United Kingdom likapeleka wanangwa wakujiwusa yekha.thumb|Sitampu iyo yili na cithuzithuzi ca Fumukazi Elizabeth II, 1953

Boma na ndale


Charu cha Gambia chikamba kujiyimira paŵekha pa 18 February 1965. Kwamba mu 1965 m'paka mu 1994, charu ichi chikaŵa na vipani vinandi. Wakawusikanga na Dawda Jawara na People's Progressive Party (PPP). Ndipouli, mu nyengo iyi vinthu vikasintha yayi pa ndyali, ndipo ŵanthu ŵakasuskanga yayi kuti boma liŵe na mazaza.Edie, p. 162 Mu 1994, gulu la ŵasilikari ilo likapangika na ŵalara ŵa ŵasilikari likamba kuwusa. Pakati pajumpha vyaka viŵiri kufuma apo boma likambira kulamulira, ŵakalemba dango liphya ndipo mu 1996, mulongozgi wa AFPRC, Yahya Jammeh, wakasankhika kuŵa pulezidenti. Wakalongozga mu nthowa ya wupu wakulongozga m'paka mu 2016 apo Adamu Barrow wakathereskeka na chipani cha opposition.

 Mbiri ya ndale 

Mu nyengo ya Jawara, pakaŵa vipani vinayi, PPP, United Party (UP), Democratic Party (DP), na I.M. Chipani cha Muslim Congress Party (MCP) cha Garba-Jahumpa. Pa maungano gha mu 1960, pakaŵa Nyumba ya Wupu Wakulongozga ndipo pakaŵavya chipani icho chikapokera vithuzithuzi vinandi. Ndipouli, mu 1961, Kazembe wa Britain wakasankha Pierre Sarr N'Jie, mulongozgi wa UP kuti waŵe mulongozgi wakwamba wa boma. Ici cikaŵa cinthu cambura kutemweka comene, ndipo maungano gha mu 1962 ghakaŵa ghakuzirwa comene cifukwa vikawovwira kuti ŵanthu ŵa mitundu yakupambanapambana na visopa mu Gambia. Chipani cha PPP chikapokera chiŵelengero chikuru, ndipo chikapangika na chipani cha Democratic Congress Alliance (DCA; chisanganiko cha DP na MCP). Ŵakacemera UP kuti ŵanjire mu wupu uwu mu 1963, kweni ŵakaluta mu 1965.Edie, pp. 162–164

Gulu la UP ndilo likaŵa lakwamba kususka boma, kweni likathera mu 1965 m'paka 1970.

Mu nyengo ya muwuso wa Jawara, ŵanthu ŵakakwesananga pa nkhani za ndyali. Kweni ŵakayowoya kuti mu charu ichi mukaŵa "chipani chimoza icho chikaŵa na mazaza pa charu chose. Pa nyengo iyo boma likamba kujiyimira palekha, ŵanthu ŵakaŵavya wanangwa, ndipo magulu ghakwimikana nagho ghakaŵa ghakukhora. Ŵakususka ŵakaŵavya mwaŵi wa kusanga ndalama, cifukwa ŵamalonda ŵakakana kuzipeleka. Boma likaŵa na mazaza pa nyengo yakupharazgira ŵanthu na kuŵapharazgira, ndipo pakaŵaso milandu ya kuguliska mavoti na kuleka kulembeska mavoti. Pa mulandu wa kuswa malango kwa boma la PDOIS mu 1991 cifukwa ca kuswa malango mu Banjul, boma likakana mulandu uwu.

Mu Julayi 1994, ŵasilikari ŵakathereska boma la Jawara. Wupu uwu ukalekeska ntchito ya malango gha charu ichi, ukazomerezga yayi vyaru vyose vya ndyali, ndipo ukaŵika dango lakuti ŵanthu ŵafumenge yayi pa nyumba kufuma mise m'paka mulenji. Mu 1996, boma likamba kusintha vinthu kuti liŵe la demokilase, ndipo ŵakalemba dango liphya, nangauli ŵakalondezga fundo izo zikamovwira Jammeh. Mu 1996, ŵanthu 70% ŵakakolerana na dango ili, ndipo mu Disembala 1996, Jammeh wakasankhika kuŵa pulezidenti. Mabungwe ghose agho ghakaŵapo pambere boma lindanjire mu boma ghakakanizgika, ndipo ŵaliska ŵakaŵakanizga kugwira ntchito za boma.

Pa nyengo iyo Jammeh wakaŵa na mazaza, ŵanthu ŵakususkana nawo ŵakambaso kugaŵikana. Mwaciyelezgero, pakaŵa nkhondo pakati pa ŵanthu ŵa mu gulu la National Alliance for Democracy and Development (NADD) ilo likapangika mu 2005. Jammeh wakagwiliskiranga nchito ŵapolisi kusuzga ŵanthu ŵa mu vyaru vinyake. Jammeh wakasoleka na mulandu wa kuswa wanangwa wa ŵanthu, comenecomene ku ŵanthu awo ŵakuvikilira wanangwa wa ŵanthu, mawupu gha wupu wa ŵanthu, ŵakususka ndyali, na ŵapharazgi. Ŵakatumizgika ku caru cinyake, ŵakatambuzgika, ŵakakakika mwambura mulandu, ŵakakomeka, kweniso ŵakazgeŵa. Viyelezgero vinyake ni ivyo vikachitika mu 2004, apo Deyda Hydara uyo wakaŵa mulembi wa nyuzipepara wakakomeka. Mu 2000, ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakasuskanga ŵasambizgi pa ungano wa kususka. Kweniso, Jammeh wakawofyanga wanangwa wa cisopa wa ŵanthu awo Mbacikhristu yayi, wakagwiliskiranga nchito 'ŵeruzgi ŵakugwilira nchito ŵekha' kuti watimbanizge wupu wa vyeruzgi, ndipo wakasuskika kanandi waka kuti wakasuzga pa mavoti.

Mu Disembala 2016, Jammeh wakathereskeka na Adama Barrow, uyo wakawovwirika na mabungwe ghakupambanapambana. Jammeh wakati wazomera kufumapo ndipo wakasintha maghanoghano, pakaŵa suzgo la ndyali ilo likapangiska kuti ŵasilikari ŵa ECOWAS ŵanjire mu charu mu Janyuwale 2017. Barrow wakalayizga kuti wazamulongozga boma la nyengo yitali kwa vilimika vitatu. Wupu wakuwona vya demokilase na chitukuko wa ku Nigeria ukuti masuzgo agho Barrow wakukumana nagho ghakukhumbikwira kuwezgerapo "kugomezga kwa ŵanthu mu boma". Ŵakuyowoya kuti "mtende ngwakukhazika" ndipo mu vyaru vya kumwera muli masuzgo pakati pa ŵalimi na ŵanthu ŵanandi. Ŵakaphalirangaso za masuzgo agho ghakuŵapo pakati pa mafuko. Mwachiyelezgero, mu Febuluwale 2017, ŵanthu 51 awo ŵakakolerananga na Jammeh ŵakakakika chifukwa cha kutambuzga ŵanthu awo ŵakakolerananga na Barrow. Nangauli pakwamba ŵanthu ŵakakondwa chomene na ivyo Barrow wakachita pakusankha pulezidenti, kweni ŵakakondwa yayi chifukwa cha ivyo wakachita apo wakaŵa wachiŵiri kwa pulezidenti.

Pa 5 Disembala, 2021, Purezidenti wakale Adamu Barrow adalengezedwa ngati wopambana pa chisankho cha purezidenti wa Gambia ndi komiti yosankha. Chisankho cha pa 4 Disembala 2021, chakwamba kufuma apo uyo wakalamuliranga kale Yahya Jammeh wakachimbilira ku charu chinyake, chikawonekanga kuti ntchakukhumbikwa chomene ku demokilase.

Buku la amalango

Mu vyaka vyose ivyo vyajumpha, charu cha Gambia chili na malango ghanandi. Malamulo ghaŵiri ghakuzirwa chomene ni dango la 1970 ilo likakhazikiska charu cha Gambia nga ni boma la pulezidenti, na dango la 1996 ilo likawovwira Jammeh kuwusa. Jammeh wakasintha malango gha mu 1996 kuti wawovwirepo. Pakaŵavya mazgu ghakuti nyengo iyo Jammeh wazamwambira kuwusa yizamukhalako nyengo yitali.

Gulu la ŵasilikari la Gambia (GAF) likapangika mu chaka cha 1985 nga ni ndondomeko ya Senegambia Confederation, umoza wa ndyali pakati pa Gambia na Senegal. Gulu ili likaŵa la Gambia National Army (GNA), ilo likasambizgika na ŵa ku Britain, na la Gambia National Gendarmerie (GNG), ilo likasambizgika na ŵa ku Senegal. GNG yikasazgikana na ŵapolisi mu 1992, ndipo mu 1997 Jammeh wakapangiska Gambian Navy (GN). Mu vyaka vya m'ma 2000, ŵanthu ŵakayezgapo kuti ŵaŵe na ŵasilikari ŵa ku Gambia kweni ŵakatondeka. Mu 2008, Jammeh wakambiska gulu la National Republican Guard, ilo lili na ŵasilikari ŵapadera. Gulu la GNA lili na ŵasilikari pafupifupi 900. Likagwiliskiranga nchito magalimoto gha Ferret na M8 Greyhound. Gulu la GN lili na maboti ghakuvikilira, ndipo Taiwan likapeleka maboti ghanyake ghaphya ku ŵasilikari mu 2013.

Kufuma waka apo ŵasilikari ŵa GAF ŵakakhazikiskikira mu 1985,Bellamy, Alex J. and Williams, Paul D.
