What Are The Most Populated Equatorial Countries?
What are the most populated Equatorial Countries in the world?
An equatorial country is a country that sits on the equator, the equator is an imagery line that runs across our planet halfway between the North and South Pole at 0 degrees latitude.
The closer to the equator you are, generally the hotter your country is, there are other factors which may influence climate such as being high altitude or coastal, but it is fair to say that equatorial countries are hot, humid and wet.
There are 13 countries in total that sit on the equator, spanning across South America, Africa, Asia and Oceania.

The Mystery Behind The Andes Mountains Contrasting Climate | Equator
There is place at the equator where unexpected creatures live side by side in a cold desert. Ice Age survivors meet tropical plants and animals on the flanks of active volcanoes in a country whose Spanish name Ecuador means Equator. The Andes of South America are one of the most unusual places at the equator. Every day here is a battle between sun and ice, hot and cold. The paradox of the Andes is that the closer they are to the sun, the colder it becomes.

Horse Latitudes - Doldrums - Why Did the Sailors throw the Horses Into the Ocean? - 3D Animation
In the ancient times, especially during the age of sail, which lasted from mid-16th century to the mid-19th century, when the international trade was dominated by ships sailing across the oceans.
Traders from Spain carried horses in ships to trade them in the colonies in West indies and the Americas.
In their journey across the vast North Atlantic Ocean, they often reached a geographical point where they were left with no option other than throwing the horses on board into the ocean to survive & stay on course.
Due to the frequent dumping of horses into the ocean the latitudes on that particular region got popular as the Horse latitudes.
Why did the sailors had to throw the horses into the water, what compelled them to throw the beasts away which they boarded on the ship with an intention to trade?
Let’s find out.
Between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn lies a zone called the sub tropics. And in this sub-tropical region are the Horse latitudes. Also, know as the sub-tropical highs.
This region is an area of high pressure which kills all the precipitation & has a very calming effect on the winds, the sky is pretty sunny without any clouds. This high-pressure area is created as the winds from this place either diverge towards the poles or the equator.
The subsiding winds subsequently create a desert like arid climate in the area below. The Sahara Desert for instance is located on the Horse latitude.
In the early age the ships solely relied on the ocean wind currents to stay on course & complete their journey. And since, there were no winds in the region the ships would just get stuck for days if not weeks.
The voyage would become severely prolonged & supplies would get thin. Being stranded, unable to sail ahead & with minimal supplies, the crew often ran out of drinking water. And that made it impossible for the them to keep the horses alive.
It was either them or the horses. They would unwillingly in these extreme circumstances throw the horses overboard to keep themselves alive & reach their destination with whatever they were left with.
Well, this is the whole origin story of the Horse latitudes.

Equatorial Guinea Explained In 11 minutes
Rhythms of Equatorial Guinea
Equatorial Guinea, located in Central Africa, has a complex history and diverse culture. It was originally inhabited by various ethnic groups like the Bubi and Fang. European colonization began with the Portuguese in the 15th century, followed by Spanish control in the 18th century. The country's history was marked by forced labor under colonial rule and exploitation of resources like cocoa and timber. It gained independence in 1968 but has since experienced authoritarian regimes, first under Francisco Macías Nguema and later under Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo. The discovery of significant oil reserves in the 1990s transformed Equatorial Guinea into one of Africa's wealthiest countries, albeit with marked income inequality and human rights concerns. The population of 1.6 million is predominantly Christian, with Spanish as the official language, though local languages like Fang and Bubi are also spoken. The geography includes the island regions of Bioko and Annobón and the mainland Rio Muni, characterized by tropical rainforests and volcanic islands. The economy is heavily reliant on oil, with agriculture playing a minor role. Politically, the country remains under the authoritarian rule of President Obiang, facing criticism for human rights violations. Culturally, Equatorial Guinea is known for its music, literature, and cuisine, which includes dishes like Yetisse, Kansiye, Konkoe Ture Gbeli, and Akwadu.

Hot temperatures all the year round, and an even rainfall pattern, typifies the Equatorial Rainforest.
This video looks at the changing way of life for the people of the Equatorial Rainforest, and connects with the Standard Grade Natural Regions unit.
Weather & Climate - What factors affect temperatures
In this video we examine Latitude, Altitude, Ocean currents, Wind direction and Maritime vs. Continental locations to explore the factors that influence how hot an area is. This is made for Geography students or all levels as a basic explanation (using diagram) of these factors.

#rainforest || The Tropical Rainforest Climate
Jungle rain provides a soothing ambience, making it an ideal white noise for sleeping or for studying. Relax and immerse yourself in this rain sound from a lush rainforest in the tropics.
A white noise sound, like jungle rain, effectively blocks out distracting noises. It's calming to listen to a rain storm inside the warmth of a home, school or office, while envisioning it raining heavily outside. Rainy weather truly provides a great sleep noise and relaxing study sounds.

Will COP28 Climate Talks Save Pacific Island Nations Like Tuvalu? #climatecrisis #tuvalu
Tuvalu is on the front line of the climate crisis.
This unique country is made up of a series of nine islands and coral atolls totalling only 26 square kilometres in land area, spread out near the equator in the western Pacific Ocean. With an average elevation of only one meter above sea level, the United Nations has predicted that it may be the first nation to disappear, as a result of rising sea levels.
Will the COP28 talk in Dubai make any significant progress in protecting vulnerable island states like Tuvalu?

Caught On the Equator- Amazing story | Heather Shreve | Kenya ,1983
On Amazon:
Jailed in East Africa in 1983 was the beginning of setting my own beauty within free...This is my true story, Caught On The Equator. Join me in seeing Africa, in all her glory. Discover with me how to find your own originality. See how life is about THE GIFT of BECOMING who you were meant to be...
As an artist and a teenager, this is my story of discovering an exotic country and the unexpected gifts that lay within.
Join me on a raw and amazing trek to E. Africa, back to 1983 in a country filled with savage beauty but also harboring a savage business- IVORY! Find out how I unknowingly was caught up in both, and how venturing into a place on fire with corruption, struggling to recover from a coup in 1982, showed me a perspective that would change the rest of my life.
I was only nineteen and unsure; uncertain whether I would remember my sublime journey to East Africa in all her glory and detail. I took no notes, did no sketches and was without paper or brushes to record any part of my adventure. Except for a camera and my memory, I had left it all to chance.
If the images I had seen in Africa were with my eyes alone, I may not have remembered them so clearly. But my encounter with the equator was through my soul, and so all the beauty and the special music which came from her were captured in my heart, forever. Thirty years needed to pass before I truly understood her messages and could embrace the quiet whispers of Truth. It was a requirement of sorts for me to be able to describe adequately a place where north and south, light and dark, fire and ice collide in such spectacular form.
One thing is for certain- my way into E. Africa was relatively simple. My way out was not.
