A BRIEF HISTORY OF CAMEROON
The nation that colonized Cameroon was Germany. France took over after WWI. Then France split Cameroon in to two parts. One side was for the British and the other was for the French. Colonization hurt the people of Cameroon. The French did not help Cameroon. The French made the Cameroonians make railroads and roads. It was very sad!
The way Cameroon got its independence was that they were given their independence. The French gave them their independence in 1960.
One problem that they are facing today is border bandits.
