Gabon is a country in Western Central Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africa's wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
Understand[edit]
History[edit]
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.
In the 15th century, the first Europeans arrived. The nation's present name originates from Gabão, Portuguese for cloak, which is roughly the shape of the estuary of the Komo River close to the capital of Libreville. French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza led his first mission to the Gabon-Congo area in 1875. He founded the town of Franceville, and was later colonial governor. Several Bantu groups lived in the area that is now Gabon when France officially occupied it in 1885.
In 1910, Gabon became one of the four territories of French Equatorial Africa, a federation that survived until 1959. These territories became independent on August 17, 1960.
Since independence, Gabon has been one of the more stable African countries. Autocratic President Omar Bongo was in power from 1967 until his death in 2009. Gabon introduced a multiparty system and a new constitution in the early 1990s that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and for reforms of governmental institutions. A small population, abundant natural resources, and considerable foreign support have helped make Gabon one of the more prosperous sub-Saharan African countries. Despite being made up of more than 40 ethnic groups, Gabon has escaped the strife afflicting other West African states.

VISIT AFRICA- GABON (song by Meiway~Gabon)
Gabon is in west central Africa. A surprising country, it has a little of everything, from dense virgin rainforests to sophisticated glitzy cities. The quietness of its forest territory has lent it the nickname of The Ghost Who Walks. However, Gabon is known for the conservation efforts of natural wildlife. The capital of Gabon is Libreville which is the equivalent of Miami to Africa. It is also one of the most expensive cities in the world.

La ligne de chemin de fer Franceville-Libreville mesure presque 700 kilomètres, considérable dans un pays qui n'avait alors dans les années 1980 que 900 kilomètres de routes goudronnées ! Le Transgabonais achemine principalement des grumes et du manganèse vers Libreville.
