The African country of Ghana was formerly known by what name?

Soo many resources in Africa like gold diamonds metal ores timber cocoa grains soo rich

Ghana started as a great country and a beacon of Africa, but corruption has deteriorated the country. The corruption started when the military took over the country in 1966 and since then subsequent governments, both civilian and military have failed to maintain the country’s former glory.
