Cameroon - officially the Republic of
Cameroon - is a unitary republic of central and western Africa. It is bordered
by Nigeria to the west; Chad to the northeast; the Central African Republic to
the east; and Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, and the Republic of the Congo to the south.
Cameroon’s coastline lies on the Bight of Bonny, part of the Gulf of Guinea
and the Atlantic Ocean. The country is called "Africa in miniature" for its
geological and cultural diversity. Natural features include beaches, deserts,
mountains, rainforests, and savannas. The highest point is Mount Cameroon in the
southwest, and the largest cities are Douala, Yaoundé, and Garoua. Cameroon is
home to over 200 different ethnic and linguistic groups. The country is well known
for its native styles of music, particularly makossa and bikutsi, and for its
successful national football team. English and French are the official languages.
The capital city is Yaoundé.
