África Central

África Central, or Central Africa, is a region in the middle part of the African continent, mainly comprising countries like Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, and the Republic of the Congo. It features dense rainforests, diverse wildlife, and rich natural resources such as oil, minerals, and timber. The region is characterized by a mix of cultures, languages, and histories, often shaped by colonial pasts. Despite its natural wealth, Central Africa faces challenges like political instability, poverty, and health issues, but it remains vital for global biodiversity and resource markets.
