Volta Region (or Volta) is one of Ghana's sixteen administrative regions, with Ho designated as its capital. Other major towns in the Region include Anloga, Keta, Hohoe, Aflao, Sogakope, Akatsi, Juapong, Denu and many others. It is located west of Republic of Togo and to the east of Lake Volta. Divided into 18 administrative districts, the region is multi-ethnic and multilingual, including groups such as the Ewe, the Guan, Ga-Adangme, Akan people, Hausa and other minority groups. The Guan peoples prior to the creation of the Oti Region included the Lolobi, Likpe, Akpafu, Akyode, Buem, Nyagbo, Avatime (located in the Agortime-Ziope district, remains an integral part of the Volta Region) and Nkonya.

The people of the Volta Region are popularly known as Voltarians (French: Voltaiens). This group includes the Ewes, Guans and other minor tribes living in the Volta Region. The people of the Volta Region are popular known for their rich cultural display and music some of which include Agbadza, Borborbor and Zigi.

The modern Mfantsefo or Fante ("Fanti" is an older spelling) confederacy is a combination of Akan people and aboriginal Guan people. The Fante people are mainly located in the Central and Western regions of Ghana, West Africa, occupying the forest and coastal areas. Their land stretches from the eastern part of western region in the west to Gomoa in the east. The Fante can be broadly categorized into two groups – the Borbor/Boka Fante (Akan ancestry) and the Etsii Fante (Guan ancestry). Over the last half-century, Fante communities have been established as far as Gambia, Liberia, Côte d'Ivoire and even Angola due to fishing expeditions. Major Fante cities and towns in modern Ghana include Cape Coast, Saltpond, Sekondi, Elmina, Agona Swedru, Mankessim, Winneba, Shama, Apam, Komenda, Kasoa and Anomabo.
