The economy of Djbouti is derived in large part from its strategic location on the Red Sea. Djibouti is mostly barren, with little development in the agricultural and industrial sectors. The country has a harsh climate, a largely unskilled labour force, and limited natural resources. The country’s most important economic asset is its strategic location connecting the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. As such, Djibouti’s economy is dominated by the services sector, providing services as both a transit port for the region and as an international transshipment and refuelling centre.
From 1991 to 1994, Djibouti experienced a civil war which had devastating effects on the economy. Since then, the country has benefited from political stability. In recent years, Djibouti has seen significant improvement in macroeconomic stability, with its annual gross domestic product improving at an average of over 3 percent since 2003. This comes after a decade of negative or low growth. This is attributed to fiscal adjustment measures aimed at improving public financing, as well as reforms in port management.
Djibouti (Arabic: جيبوتي Jībūtī, French: Djibouti, Somali: Jabuuti, Afar: Gabuuti), officially the Republic of Djibouti (Arabic: جمهورية جيبوتي Jumhūriyyat Jībūtī, French: République de Djibouti, Afar: Gabuutih Ummuuno, Somali: Jamhuuriyadda Jabuuti), is a country in the Horn of Africa. It is bordered by Eritrea in the north, Ethiopia in the west and south, and Somalia in the southeast. The remainder of the border is formed by the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden at the east. Djibouti, which had a population of 818,159 at the 2009 census, is one of the least populous countries in Africa.Islam is the largest religion in the country, practiced by 94% of the population. The land was known as Obock and French Somaliland (Côte française des Somalis) in the 19th century; in 1967, it changed its name to Afars and Issas after new treaties with France. The territory was declared an independent nation in 1977 and changed its name to the "Republic of Djibouti" after its principal city. Djibouti joined the United Nations on September 20, 1977. While Djibouti is an independent sovereign state, it maintains deep French relations, and through various military and economic agreements with France, it receives continued security and economic assistance.

Djibouti Turns to its Peers for Advice on Reaching its Goals
Djibouti is preparing for the future. The tiny country in the Horn of Africa has outlined an ambitious set of goals it hopes to achieve by 2035. These goals are the result of careful research, assisted by the World Bank, to identify sectors of the economy with the potential to generate growth. As part of this exercise, the World Bank brought representatives from Cape Verde, Dubai and Mauritius—countries that faced similar obstacles in the past—to Djibouti to share their experiences.

The Danakil Desert lies on the borders of Djibouti, Ethiopia and Eritrea. The hottest and most toxic desert on Earth, this arid region is prone to seismic activity and abounds in active volcanos. A caravan trade route still exists through this deadly place, despite the hardships it poses. For centuries, Djibouti has been supplying Ethiopia with salt, the prized commodity being one of the pillars of its economy. To this day, the process of collecting and delivering salt has remained almost completely unchanged.

China is negotiating a military base in a strategic port of Djibouti, the president said, according to the AFP news agency.
The move raises the prospect of US and Chinese bases side-by-side in the tiny Horn of Africa nation.
"Discussions are ongoing," President Ismail Omar Guelleh said in an interview in Djibouti, saying Beijing's presence would be "welcome".
The AFP did not say when the interview was conducted.
Djibouti is already home to Camp Lemonnier, the US military headquarters on the continent, used for covert, anti-terror and other operations in Yemen, Somalia and elsewhere across Africa.
France and Japan also have bases in the port, a former French colony that guards the entrance to the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, and which has been used by European and other international navies as a base in the fight against piracy from neighbouring Somalia.
China is already financing several major infrastructure projects estimated to total more than $9bn, including improved ports, airports and railway lines to landlocked Ethiopia, for which Djibouti is a lifeline port.
"France's presence is old, and the Americans found that the position of Djibouti could help in the fight against terrorism in the region," Guelleh said.
"The Japanese want to protect themselves from piracy - and now the Chinese also want to protect their interests, and they are welcome," he said.
Djibouti overseas the narrow Bab al-Mandeb straits, the channel separating Africa from Arabia and one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world, leading into the Red Sea and northwards to the Mediterranean.
Djibouti and Beijing signed a military agreement allowing the Chinese navy to use Djibouti port in February 2014, a move that angered Washington.
China aims to install a permanent military base in Obock, Djibouti's northern port city.
In recent years, Guelleh has increasingly turned to China as a key economic partner. Last year he switched the port operating contract to a Chinese company, after the previous Dubai-based operator was accused of corruption.

Djibouti and Beijing signed a military agreement allowing the Chinese navy to use Djibouti port in February 2014, a move that angered Washington.
China aims to install a permanent military base in Obock, Djibouti's northern port city.
In recent years, Guelleh has increasingly turned to China as a key economic partner. Last year he switched the port operating contract to a Chinese company, after the previous Dubai-based operator was accused of corruption.

The Danakil Desert lies on the borders of Djibouti, Ethiopia and Eritrea. The hottest and most toxic desert on Earth, this arid region is prone to seismic activity and abounds in active volcanos. A caravan trade route still exists through this deadly place, despite the hardships it poses. For centuries, Djibouti has been supplying Ethiopia with salt, the prized commodity being one of the pillars of its economy. To this day, the process of collecting and delivering salt has remained almost completely unchanged.

Djibouti Turns to its Peers for Advice on Reaching its Goals
Djibouti is preparing for the future. The tiny country in the Horn of Africa has outlined an ambitious set of goals it hopes to achieve by 2035. These goals are the result of careful research, assisted by the World Bank, to identify sectors of the economy with the potential to generate growth. As part of this exercise, the World Bank brought representatives from Cape Verde, Dubai and Mauritius—countries that faced similar obstacles in the past—to Djibouti to share their experiences.
