Africa in Miniature: Cameroon

Cameroon is located in the heart of Africa, where West and Central Africa meet. It is geographically, ethnically, historically, and culturally diverse country, dubbing its nickname, ‘Africa in Miniature.’ The Republic of Cameroon is the only African country that has been colonized by three powers, Germany, Great Britain, and France and has two official languages, English and French. There are over 250 ethnic groups in Cameroon. If these diverse features don’t make Cameroon dynamic enough, look at its pristine beaches in the Southwest, lush forests in the East, vast deserts in the North, and bustling capital. Cameroon is home to many unique characteristics and known for its relative stability.
