Liberia, a West African country of about 5 million people, is known for its cultural diversity, with each ethnic group ｰ Gbandi, Bassa, Belle, Dey, Gio, Gola, Grebo, Kissi, Kpelle, Krahn, Kru, Lorma, Mano, Mandingo, Mende, and Vai ｰ possessing its own, language, religions, traditions, customs and laws. Despite being a diverse nation, Liberia ｰ since its independence in 1847 ｰ has never had a coherent, nationally-adopted cultural policy.[1]
