Cameroon is often called “Little Africa” because it contains the diversity of all of Africa within its borders. It’s got varied terrain — volcanoes, beaches, savannahs, rainforests and rocky mountain ranges — as well as diversity of culture, including Christians, Muslims, pygmies, ancient chiefdoms and modern cities sharing its 475,000 square kilometers.
