Capital status
National capital of Niger
Niamey is the capital and largest city of Niger, the country's political, administrative, and economic centre, with a population estimated at well over 1 million and growing rapidly. It runs on West Africa Time (WAT, UTC+1) year-round, as Niger does not observe daylight saving. The city straddles the Niger River in the far southwest of the country, mostly on the river's left bank, in a semi-arid Sahelian zone on the edge of the Sahara. Niamey grew from a modest settlement into the colonial capital of French Niger in the 1920s and has expanded enormously since independence in 1960. As the largest urban centre in one of the world's youngest and fastest-growing populations, it concentrates the country's government institutions, university, and commerce.
