republic on the west coast of Africa, and includes an area on the mainland
called Rio Muni (or Mbini) and five islands: Bioko, Corisco, Great Elobey,
Little Elobey, and Annobon. The total land area is 28,052
square kilometres (10,831 square miles). Rio Muni is bordered on the north by Cameroon and on the

storytelling which are all important to the Fang people, who form the majority
of the population on the mainland. Spanish is the official language.
