The Republic of Ambazonia is the former United Nations Trust Territory of Southern British Cameroons. It is located between Nigeria 🗗 to the west and north, and Cameroun to the east; it is wedged between West Africa 🗗 and the former French Equatorial Africa. If independent, Ambazonia would share maritime boundaries with Nigeria 🗗, the Republic of Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea 🗗.
Ambazonia has a land size of 43,000 square kilometers and a population of approximately 6 million people according to the Cameroon state census (the census has long been subject to political manipulation; the number is likely closer to 8 million). It is thus slightly larger than the Netherlands 🗗, ranked the 131st largest 🗗 country and has about as many inhabitants as Paraguay, the world's 93rd largest country in terms of population. (In other terms, Ambazonia is more populous than at least 60 UN and 18 African Union (AU) Member States, and is larger in area than at least 30 UN and 12 AU Member States.)
