English: This map shows the Dutch possessions on the Gold Coast after forts were traded with Britain in 1867. All forts to the east of Elmina were given to Britain, those West of Elmina became Dutch. The treaty established a Dutch protectorate in the Gold Coast, but did not last long, as in 1872 all remaining Dutch forts were sold to the United Kingdom.
