Kamerun Campaign (19h 59min, sep 30, 1914 y – 5h 41min, oct 1, 1916 y)

Description:

By 25 August 1914, British forces in Nigeria had moved into Kamerun towards Mara in the far north, towards Garua in the centre and towards Nsanakang in the south. British forces in the south attacked Nsanakang and were defeated and almost completely destroyed by German counterattacks at the Battle of Nsanakong. Most Kamerunians remained in Muni but the Germans eventually moved to Fernando Po and some were allowed by Spain to travel to the Netherlands to go home. Some Kamerunians moved to Madrid, where they lived as visiting nobility on German funds.
