duala

Douala is a city near the Atlantic coast in Cameroon. It is the commercial capital of the country and home to its largest port. The Bonaberi bridge over the Wouri river divides the city into two parts. The population of Douala is about 1,6 million as of 1991. Douala is Cameroon's largest city and a transportation center handling most of the country's exports (oil, cocoa and coffee) as well as transit trade from Chad. Douala developed as a center of the slave trade after the Portuguese arrived in 1472. It later became part of a German protectorate (1884) and of the French Cameroons (1919). Duala (fr. Douala) is also the language spoken around the city. The language belongs to the Bantu languages family.
