What Continent is Gabon in?
Gabon is located south of Cameroon and is almost cut in half by the Equator, to the west it overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, while further inland we have some not very accentuated mountain ranges. Compared to the African average, Gabon is a richer country, thanks to mineral and oil resources and the export of timber (almost 3/4 of the state is equatorial forest); the population, very small considering the total area, lives mainly along the coastal strip.
