Découvrez la GUINÉE ÉQUATORIALE : Le Seul Pays Africain parlant Espagnol | 10 FAITS INTÉRESSANTS
Située sur la côte ouest de l'Afrique centrale, la Guinée équatoriale comprend à la fois une région continentale et des régions insulaires couvrant une superficie de miles carrés 11,000. Il s'agit d'un pays qui a beaucoup à raconter grâce à son histoire intéressante et sa situation actuelle unique.
Ce n'est pas par hasard ou à partir d'une simple décision que l'Espagnole est la langue officielle de la guinée équatoriale. En effet, c'est en 1968 que la Guinée équatoriale accéde à l'indépendance après 190 ans de domination espagnole.
À ce temps-là, Les Portugais sont le premier colonisateur. Mais à un moment donné, les Espagnols, les Français et les Britanniques obtiennent des droits territoriaux. Cela explique pourquoi, outre l'espagnol, le portugais et le français sont également des langues officielles.
Soulignons que la Guinée équatoriale était une colonie espagnole à différentes occasions: entre 1778 et 1810; et de 1844 à 1968. En raison de sa longue influence sur le pays, l’espagnol reste une langue importante.
Aujourd'hui, la Guinée équatoriale est le seul pays d’Afrique où l’espagnol est une langue officielle. Environ 67.6% de la population peut le parler. L'espagnol est la langue utilisée pour l'administration publique et l'éducation.

Obiang Nguema Sworn in as Equatorial Guinea's President
May 20, 2016 - At the Palace of Congresses and Conferences in Sipopo, Obiang Nguema Mbasogo S. E. was sworn in as President of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea after winning the country's recent election.
In his speech, the President highlighted the political maturity shown by the people of Equatorial Guinea in recent years. Since the beginning of our democratic experiment, the people have shown incredible support in electoral constituencies within and outside the country the political option presented by the Democratic Party of Equatorial Guinea, because they understand that the continuity of peace, political stability, economic and social development our country has experienced should not be interrupted.
The President also thanked the people for the trust they placed in him by re-electing him with 93 percent of the votes. International observers described the election as transparent, fair, and legal.
I'm not President of a district, province or region, much less one ethnic or tribal group, said President Obiang. First and foremost, I am President of the Republic and of the entire nation of Equatorial Guinea and, as such, it is my duty and obligation to defend and serve the people, safeguard national unity, territorial integrity, and promote the welfare of all citizens.
