Cameroon

Welcome to Cameroon

Cameroon, often called “Africa in miniature,” is a country rich in culture and landscapes, reflecting the diversity of the entire continent. Located in Central Africa, it blends West and Central African influences.

Its history dates back to ancient civilizations like the Sao near Lake Chad and the Bamum Kingdom in the West. Colonized by Germany in 1884, Cameroon was later divided between France and Britain after World War I. French Cameroon gained independence in 1960, followed by the unification with British Southern Cameroons in 1961, forming the Republic of Cameroon.

Today, Cameroon is a bilingual nation (French and English) with over 250 ethnic groups. From the heights of Mount Cameroon to the northern savannas, and vibrant cities like Yaoundé and Douala, it offers a rich mix of traditions, nature, and modern life.
