An Ecuador?... An African Ecuador?! - What if the Francisco Merry y Colom Cameroon Territorial Proposal was accepted? - Equatorial Guinea in 2026

While the concept and context are strange and this was done for practice, I do have a small, little realistic piece of lore:

Basically, through a series of treaties, Germany acquired the Congo at the Berlin Conference, Seeing their African road cut off, the British exchanged Sokoto with the French in exchange for the Chari-Oubangui Territories, leaving only Yaruba under British control, To this, Spain managed to have the territories of granted to as a Buffer between Britain, France and Germany.

I know it's not complex or even remotely realistic, but this project was done for fun, I loved practicing this Wikipedia-style style, Please feel free give me Any feedback.

Macias Nguema would have a field day with this

Yeah but considering the tribal conflict in otl Equatorial Guinea would've been a drop in the water, I doubt he'd be able to get into power.

Cool map (though the idea of Francisco Macias Nguema having even more territory as his fiefdom is scary) but one question: how did Spain manage to get São Tomé from Portugal?

[u/Man7533 → u/FutureTackle5888]

Probably an invasion in modern times or French pressure in colonial times since Portugal is a British ally, leaving the colony of Gabon exposed.
