Synopsis
1960 marked the end of empires on the African continent. France disappeared from the map, leaving behind the CFA Franc, a colonial creation, which is the name of the currency that still circulates in almost all its former territories south of the Sahara. Why have these states regaining their independence never denounced this strange legacy? The surprise announcement in December 2019 of the end of the CFA franc, to be replaced by the ECO, marks a turning point in the turbulent and little-known history of this currency, now at the center of all attention and controversy.
