The small wedge of French territory between Togoland and L^os has the fierce Dahomans behind it ; with these France had a severe struggle in 1892-94, resulting in the practical subjugation of one of the most troublesome native states in Africa, and the establishment of French supremacy. But Dahomey is completely insulated by the treaties of the Royal Niger Comp...any.
