map of Gabon [ Africa ]
Gabon (/ɡəˈbɒn/; French pronunciation: [ɡabɔ̃]), officially the Gabonese Republic (French: République gabonaise), is a country on the west coast of Central Africa. Located on the equator, Gabon is bordered by Equatorial Guinea to the northwest, Cameroon to the north, the Republic of the Congo on the east and south, and the Gulf of Guinea to the west. It has an area of nearly 270,000 square kilometres (100,000 sq mi) and its population is estimated at 2.1 million people. There are three distinct regions: the coastal plains, the mountains (the Cristal Mountains and the Chaillu Massif in the centre), and the savanna in the east. Gabon's capital and largest city is Libreville. The official language is French.
Originally settled by Pygmy peoples, they were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated. By the 18th century, a Myeni-speaking kingdom known as the Kingdom of Orungu formed in Gabon. It was able to become a powerful trading center mainly due to its ability to purchase and sell slaves. The kingdom fell with the demise of the slave trade in the 1870s. Since its independence from France in 1960, the sovereign state of Gabon has had three presidents. In the early 1990s, Gabon introduced a multi-party system and a new democratic constitution that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and reformed many governmental institutions.
Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, with the fifth highest HDI[7] in the region (after Mauritius, Seychelles, Botswana and South Africa) and the fifth highest GDP per capita (PPP) in all of Africa (after Seychelles, Mauritius, Equatorial Guinea and Botswana). Its GDP grew by more than 6% per year from 2010 to 2012.
Gabon is rich in folklore and mythology. Raconteurs keep traditions alive such as the mvett among the Fangs and the ingwala among the Nzebis. Gabon is also known for its masks, such as the n'goltang (Fang) and the reliquary figures of the Kota. mapa de Gabon Africa Gabon is divided into nine provinces, which are further subdivided into 50 departments. The president appoints the provincial governors, the prefects, and the subprefects.
The provinces are (capitals in parentheses):
Estuaire (Libreville)
Haut-Ogooué (Franceville)
Moyen-Ogooué (Lambaréné)
Ngounié (Mouila)
Nyanga (Tchibanga)
Ogooué-Ivindo (Makokou)

Beach scene in Gabon
Gabon is located on the Atlantic coast of central Africa on the equator, between latitudes 3°N and 4°S, and longitudes 8° and 15°E. Gabon generally has an equatorial climate with an extensive system of rainforests, with 89.3% of its land area forested.[16]
There are three distinct regions: the coastal plains (ranging between 20 and 300 km [10 and 190 mi] from the ocean's shore), the mountains (the Cristal Mountains to the northeast of Libreville, the Chaillu Massif in the centre), and the savanna in the east. The coastal plains form a large section of the World Wildlife Fund's Atlantic Equatorial coastal forests ecoregion and contain patches of Central African mangroves especially on the Muni River estuary on the border with Equatorial Guinea.
Geologically, Gabon is primarily ancient Archean and Paleoproterozoic igneous and metamorphic basement rock, belonging to the stable continental crust of the Congo Craton, a remnant section of extremely old continental crust. Some formations are more than two billion years old. Ancient rock units are overlain by marine carbonate, lacustrine and continental sedimentary rocks as well as unconsolidated sediments and soils that formed in the last 2.5 million years of the Quaternary. The rifting apart of the supercontinent Pangaea created rift basins that filled with sediments and formed the hydrocarbons which are now a keystone of the Gabonese economy.[18] Gabon is notable for the Oklo reactor zones, the only known natural nuclear fission reactor on Earth which was active two billion years ago. The site was discovered during uranium mining in the 1970s to supply the French nuclear power industry.
Gabon's largest river is the Ogooué which is 1,200 kilometres (750 mi) long. Gabon has three karst areas where there are hundreds of caves located in the dolomite and limestone rocks. Some of the caves include Grotte du Lastoursville, Grotte du Lebamba, Grotte du Bongolo, and Grotte du Kessipougou.
Gabon is also noted for efforts to preserve the natural environment. In 2002, President Omar Bongo Ondimba designated roughly 10% of the nation's territory to be part of its national park system (with 13 parks in total), one of the largest proportions of nature parkland in the world. The National Agency for National Parks manages Gabon's national park system. Gabon had a 2018

It is made up of two main regions: Bioko Island, which is where the capital city of Malabo is located, and Río Muni, which is on the mainland. Equatorial Guinea is a country of contrasts, with a rich history and diverse cultures. It is also a country with a rapidly growing economy, thanks to its oil and gas reserves. In this article, we will explore the history, geography, people, facts, and economy of Equatorial Guinea. We will also take a look at the country's future prospects. I hope you will find this article interesting and informative!
About Equatorial Guinea
Equatorial Guinea is a small country located on the west coast of Africa. It is made up of two main regions: Bioko Island, which is where the capital city of Malabo is located, and Río Muni, which is on the mainland. Equatorial Guinea is a country of contrasts, with a rich history and diverse cultures. It is also a country with a rapidly growing economy, thanks to its oil and gas reserves.
Equatorial Guinea is not a major player on the world stage, but it is important for a few reasons. First, it is located in a strategic position on the Gulf of Guinea, which is a major shipping route. Second, it has a large oil and gas industry, which is important for the global economy. Third, it is a member of the African Union and the United Nations, which gives it a voice on the international stage.
Equatorial Guinea's reputation around the world is mixed. On the one hand, the country is often praised for its economic growth and its potential as a future oil and gas producer. On the other hand, Equatorial Guinea has been criticized for its human rights record and its high level of corruption.
Overall, Equatorial Guinea is a country with a lot of potential. However, it also faces some challenges, such as corruption and poverty. The country's future reputation will depend on how it addresses these challenges.
The History of Equatorial Guinea
Equatorial Guinea has a long and complex history, dating back to the 15th century. The first Europeans to arrive in the region were the Portuguese, who established a trading post on Bioko Island in 1472. The island was then known as Fernando Poo.
In the 17th century, the Spanish took control of Bioko Island. They also established a colony on the mainland, which was known as Río Muni. The Spanish ruled Equatorial Guinea for over 300 years.
In 1968, Equatorial Guinea gained independence from Spain. The first president of Equatorial Guinea was Francisco Macías Nguema. Macías Nguema was a brutal dictator who ruled the country for 11 years. He was overthrown in a coup d'état in 1979.
Since 1979, Equatorial Guinea has had a turbulent history. There have been several coups d'état and the country has been plagued by corruption. However, the country has also made some progress in recent years. The economy has grown significantly, thanks to the discovery of oil and gas reserves.
Equatorial Guinea is still a young country, but it has a lot of potential. The country has a young and growing population, and it is located in a strategic position on the Gulf of Guinea. If Equatorial Guinea can address its challenges, it could become a prosperous country in the future.

How Safe Is Equatorial Guinea for Travel?
Full safety review:
Equatorial Guinea is a small country located in West Africa, divided into two parts, the mainland, and the islands.
It shares borders with Cameroon and Gabon.
This country is one of the largest oil-producing countries in Sub-Sahara, and since it became so, the country has considerably developed economically, but to this day it remains one of the most corrupt countries in the world.
Overall Equatorial Guinea is, for the most part, a safe country to visit. However, it does have an extremely high crime rate, though it's mainly ridden with petty street crime. You should be vigilant and take all possible precaution measures in order to minimize the risk of getting stolen from.

How Safe Is Gabon for Travel?
Full safety review:
Gabon is a country located in Western Central Africa.
It lies on the very Equator, and has a coastline along the Atlantic Ocean, while at the same time being squeezed in between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
And though it’s a small population, Gabon has reserves of oil and minerals which has made it one of Africa’s wealthier destinations.
Gabon is, overall, not that safe to visit. If you decide to go to Gabon, you should be aware that crime, poor road conditions, interruptions to power, and poor water quality are just some of the things tourists will have a problem with.

map of Equatorial Guinea [ Africa ]
Equatorial Guinea (Spanish: Guinea Ecuatorial; French: Guinée équatoriale; Portuguese: Guiné Equatorial), officially the Republic of Equatorial Guinea (Spanish: República de Guinea Ecuatorial, French: République de Guinée équatoriale, Portuguese: República da Guiné Equatorial), is a country on the west coast of Central Africa, with an area of 28,000 square kilometres (11,000 sq mi). Formerly the colony of Spanish Guinea, its post-independence name evokes its location near both the Equator and the Gulf of Guinea. As of 2021, the country had a population of 1,468,777.
Equatorial Guinea consists of two parts, an insular and a mainland region. The insular region consists of the islands of Bioko (formerly Fernando Pó) in the Gulf of Guinea and Annobón, a small volcanic island which is the only part of the country south of the equator. Bioko Island is the northernmost part of Equatorial Guinea and is the site of the country's capital, Malabo. The Portuguese-speaking island nation of São Tomé and Príncipe is located between Bioko and Annobón. The mainland region, Río Muni, is bordered by Cameroon on the north and Gabon on the south and east. It is the location of Bata, Equatorial Guinea's largest city, and Ciudad de la Paz, the country's planned future capital. Rio Muni also includes several small offshore islands, such as Corisco, Elobey Grande, and Elobey Chico. The country is a member of the African Union, Francophonie, OPEC and the CPLP.
After becoming independent from Spain in 1968, Equatorial Guinea was ruled by President for life Francisco Macías Nguema until he was overthrown in a coup in 1979 by his nephew Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo who has served as the country's president since. Both presidents have been widely characterized as dictators by foreign observers. Since the mid-1990s, Equatorial Guinea has become one of sub-Saharan Africa's largest oil producers. It has subsequently become the richest country per capita in Africa, and its gross domestic product (GDP) adjusted for purchasing power parity (PPP) per capita ranks 43rd in the world;[15] however, the wealth is distributed extremely unevenly, with few people benefiting from the oil riches. The country ranks 144th on the 2019 Human Development Index,[16] with less than half the population having access to clean drinking water and around 1 in 12 children dying before the age of five.
Equatorial Guinea gained its independence from Spain on 12 October 1968, but maintains Spanish as its official language alongside French and recently (as of 2010) Portuguese,[19] being the only African country (aside from the largely unrecognized Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic) where Spanish is an official language.] It is also the most widely spoken language (considerably more than the other two official languages); according to the Instituto Cervantes, 87.7% of the population has a good command of Spanish.
Equatorial Guinea's government is authoritarian and has one of the worst human rights records in the world, consistently ranking among the worst of the worst in Freedom House's annual survey of political and civil rights. Reporters Without Borders ranks President Obiang among its predators of press freedom.] Human trafficking is a significant problem, with the U.S. Trafficking in Persons Report identifying Equatorial Guinea as a source and destination country for forced labour and sex trafficking. The report also noted that Equatorial Guinea does not fully meet the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking but is making significant efforts to do so. mapa de Guinea Ecuatorial Africa Equatorial Guinea is on the west coast of Central Africa. The country consists of a mainland territory, Río Muni, which is bordered by Cameroon to the north and Gabon to the east and south, and five small islands, Bioko, Corisco, Annobón, Elobey Chico (Small Elobey), and Elobey Grande (Great Elobey). Bioko, the site of the capital, Malabo, lies about 40 kilometers (25 mi) off the coast of Cameroon. Annobón Island is about 350 kilometers (220 mi) west-south-west of Cape Lopez in Gabon. Corisco and the two Elobey islands are in Corisco Bay, on the border of Río Muni and Gabon.
Equatorial Guinea lies between latitudes 4°N and 2°S, and longitudes 5° and 12°E. Despite its name, no part of the country's territory lies on the equator—it is in the northern hemisphere, except for the insular Annobón Province, which is about 155 km (96 mi) south of the equator.

hello my friends. this is a map of Gabon. It is located on the Atlantic coast of central Africa on the equator. Gabon has an equatorial climate with a system of rainforests, with 89.3% of its land area forested.
There are coastal plains (ranging between 20 and 300 km from the ocean's shore), the mountains (the Cristal Mountains to the northeast of Libreville, the Chaillu Massif in the centre), and the savanna in the east. The coastal plains form a section of the World Wildlife Fund's Atlantic Equatorial coastal forests ecoregion and contain patches of Central African mangroves including on the Muni River estuary on the border with Equatorial Guinea. French is the sole official language. It is estimated that 80% of the population can speak French, and that 30% of Libreville residents are native speakers of the language.
Nationally, a majority of the Gabonese people speak indigenous languages, according to their ethnic group, while this proportion is lower than in most other Sub-Saharan African countries.

Immigrants in Gabon
Immigrants in Gabon
Gabon is a country located in central Africa and has a relatively small immigrant population compared to other countries in the region. According to the United Nations, the number of immigrants living in Gabon was estimated to be around 50,000 in 2020, which is less than 2% of the country's total population.
The majority of immigrants in Gabon come from neighboring African countries, such as Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon, Congo, and Nigeria. Many of these immigrants come to Gabon to seek employment opportunities in various industries such as oil, forestry, and construction.
The government of Gabon has implemented policies and programs aimed at integrating immigrants into the society, providing access to education and healthcare, and protecting their rights. However, some challenges still remain, including discrimination and limited access to legal protection and social services.
Overall, while the immigrant population in Gabon is relatively small, they play an important role in the country's economy and social fabric.

EQUATORIAL GUINEA is a country located on the western coast of Central Africa
EQUATORIAL GUINEA is a country located on the western coast of Central Africa. It is bordered by Cameroon to the north and Gabon to the south and east, with the Atlantic Ocean to the west. Here's some information about its economy, education, and history:
Economy:
Equatorial Guinea is one of the wealthiest countries in Africa due to its significant oil and natural gas reserves. The hydrocarbon sector accounts for a substantial portion of the country's GDP and government revenue. However, despite its resource wealth, Equatorial Guinea faces income inequality, with a large portion of the population living in poverty.
The government has taken steps to diversify the economy by investing in sectors such as agriculture, fishing, and tourism. Efforts have been made to improve infrastructure, attract foreign investment, and promote economic development. However, these efforts are still in progress, and the economy remains heavily dependent on oil and gas exports.
Education:
The education system in Equatorial Guinea is in the process of development. Primary education is compulsory and tuition-free, but access to quality education is limited in some areas, especially in rural regions. The literacy rate in the country is relatively low compared to other African nations.
Equatorial Guinea has made efforts to improve education by investing in infrastructure, teacher training, and curriculum development. The government aims to enhance access to education and raise the quality of teaching and learning. However, there is still a need for further investment and reforms to ensure equitable access to education for all citizens.
History:
Equatorial Guinea was originally inhabited by Bantu-speaking tribes. The Portuguese were the first Europeans to arrive in the area in the late 15th century, followed by the Spanish who established colonies in the region in the 18th century. The territory was known as Spanish Guinea until it gained independence in 1968.
After independence, Equatorial Guinea experienced political instability and authoritarian rule under President Francisco Macías Nguema. His regime was characterized by human rights abuses and economic mismanagement, leading to a decline in the country's economy and living conditions.
In 1979, Macías was overthrown in a military coup led by his nephew, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, who has remained in power since then. President Obiang introduced some political and economic reforms, but his government has faced criticism for human rights violations and the concentration of power.
Despite the challenges, Equatorial Guinea has made progress in recent years, particularly in infrastructure development and economic growth. The country continues to work towards political stability, human rights improvements, and economic diversification to ensure sustainable development.

Its capital and largest city is Libreville.
The official language is French.
Since its independence from France in 1960, the sovereign state of Gabon has had three presidents.
In the early 1990s, Gabon introduced a multi-party system and a new democratic constitution that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and reformed many governmental institutions.
Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, with the fifth highest HDI in the region and the fifth highest GDP per capita in all of Africa .
Its GDP grew by more than 6% per year from 2010 to 2012.
However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.
Gabon's name originates from gabão, Portuguese for cloak, which is roughly the shape of the estuary of the Komo River by Libreville.
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples.
