Annual Political Reports [1936-1954]

This series includes 2 files relating to Annual Political Reports. The first contains the principles on the drafting and submission of annual political reports. Sent by the Government of French Sudan to all cercles, these documents define the main issues of interest to monitor and report annually. The second file contains the annual political reports on the Subdivisions of Bandiagara, Douentza and Koro. Part of this material was sent to central archives in Bamako, but documents are often enriched with detailed notes and other original information that tell many aspects of local life and traditions.
