The only Spanish-speaking country in Africa is Equatorial Guinea. It is located on the western coast of Africa, just below Cameroon, and right next to the Gulf of Guinea. Equatorial Guinea is the only country in Africa with Spanish as the official language, and it became independent from Spain on October 12, 1968, during the eleventh Government of Francisco Franco, as part of the "process of decolonization of Africa", supported by the United Nations.
