Niger, officially recorded here as Republic of the Niger, is in Sub-Saharan Africa. Its capital is Niamey, and the profile links the place to XOF, 1 recorded IANA time zone, airports, education organizations, postal locations and historical route data. The World Bank income classification shown for this profile is Low income. GeoNames reports an area of 1,267,000 square kilometres. The structured country metadata lists calling code 227, top-level domain .ne, 4 language codes, and 7 neighbouring territories.

Indicator years can differ because each source series is published on its own schedule; the tables and charts below retain the year and unit for every observation. Country names, boundaries and classifications can change over time. Regional and income labels are statistical classifications rather than political or legal judgments. Linked airport, university, air-quality, postal and route totals reflect only records published in this DataOfWorld release, not complete national inventories.
