Mali was the French West African colony of Soudan before 1959. It became independent under the latter name as part of the shortlived Mali Federation, after which it retained the name of Mali as a separate republic on 22 September 1960. The name harks back to the famous medieval Mali Empire, but there were various kingdoms and empires in the region over the course of the intervening centuries.
Le Mali était la colonie du Soudan en Afrique Occidentale Française avant 1959. Il est devenu indépendant sous le même nom dans le cadre de la Fédération malienne de courte durée, après quoi il a conservé le nom de Mali en tant que république distincte le 22 septembre 1960. Le nom renvoie à la célèbre Empire médiéval du Mali, mais il y avait plusieurs royaumes et empires dans la région au cours des siècles intervenants.
