Equatorial Guinea is a small state in the West of the Central Africa which territory shares on two basic parts: continental and island (on island Bioko). The waters of the Guinea gulf of Atlantic Ocean wash it. The country is named "Equatorial", because of the arrangement near to equator, and "Guinea", probably, - from the word "aguinaoui", which means "black". |
