Brief information about Cameroon

Located in Central Africa, Cameroon is known as 'Africa in miniature' for its incredible diversity of geography, culture and climate. It borders Nigeria to the west, Chad to the north-east, the Central African Republic to the east and Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and the Republic of Congo to the south. Its coastline along the Atlantic Ocean connects it to global trade routes. The country has a variety of landscapes, from tropical rainforest and savannah to volcanic mountains, including Mount Cameroon, the highest peak in West Africa.

The country's cultural richness stems from its more than 250 ethnic groups, each with their own traditions and languages. Yaoundé, the capital, is the political centre, while Douala, the largest city, is the economic powerhouse. Cameroon's economy is based on agriculture, oil and forestry, with coffee and cocoa being the main exports. Its natural beauty, vibrant festivals and unique wildlife, such as in the Waza National Park, make it a fascinating destination.
