Round 2: Tossup 15

A town along this river called Albadarr is home to the “Never Again” statue, which faces an island renamed from James Island to honour an American (15[1])TV character. Navigation of this river (15[1])is troubled by the Barra Kunda Falls. The source of this river is just a few kilometers from the source of the Komba River in the northern part of the Fouta Djallon. (-5[1])This river makes up the eastern border of a region home to the (*) Jola people. Apocryphally, a pair of national borders (10[1])were established by the range (-5[1])of cannon fire from British ships sailing on this river. The northern border of the Casamance (10[1])region is found just south of this river, which names an English-speaking country (10[1])located south of the lands of the Wolof. For 10 points, the city of Banjul is at the mouth of what river, which names a country surrounded by Senegal? ■END■ (10[1])

ANSWER: Gambia River [or the Fleuve Gambie or Rio Gâmbia; accept the River Gambra] (The island is now called Kunte Kinteh Island.)
