Guinea - Culture Overview The Republic of Guinea is located on the coast of West Africa, and its people have shared in the long, complex history of that region. By the 13th century, many local inhabitants had come under the influence of the Mali Empire, and as the Fula peoples migrated in from the north, they formed their own kingdom in the mountainous area of the country known as the Fouta Djallon. In spite of the stiff resistance put up by Guineans, France made the area an autonomous colony in the 1890s. Embittered by the Guinean desire for independence in 1958, the French withdrew all investment and any goods they could move. The hero of independence, Ahmed Sekou Toure, led the new nation into a political and economic isolation that preserved many cultural traditions, but at the expense of greater development. Since his death in 1984, people are more free to oppose the government but Guineans of different ethnic backgrounds have had difficulty sharing the national patrimony. Guinea has several distinct regions. Some 20% of the population live in the coastal areas of the Baga and Sousou peoples, who have been a dominant force in the government during the 1990s. In the Fouta Djallon another 40% of the people are the Fula who have always been underrepresented in national affairs. In Upper Guinea, the region of Sekou Toure, some 21% of the people are Malinke, descendents of the Mali Empire. The remaining peoples live in Forested Guinea in several such small groups as the Kissi, Kono, Guerze, and Toma. There is also a small Lebanese population in the cities and several thousand refugees from the conflicts of neighboring countries. French is the official language, taught in the schools since the 1980s, but over 100 local languages are spoken. The vast majority of Guineans are Muslims. There are a handful of Christians in and around the capital, and most of the people in the forested southeast follow animist religions.

Country Info Guinea Introduction Guinea General Data Guinea Maps Guinea Culture ... Guinea Time and Date Guinea Culture Back to Top Until 1984 artistic and literary expressions were limited largely to African themes by the single political party and its leader. As a result Guinean intellectuals exhibit a strong sense of nationalism and a decolonialized state of mind. As greater openness of expression returns, a distinctly Guinean literature is gradually emerging. A truly autonomous free press has yet to emerge as a major force in Guinean life. One French-language newspaper, Horoya, formerly controlled by the PDG, is published. A number of informal newsletters are also published in indigenous languages. A television service was begun in 1977, and transmissions continue on an irregular basis for short periods each day. The telephone network is limited and obsolescent; the few telephones in service are almost all in Conakry and other major urban centres. A program to upgrade the telecommunications system was implemented in the late 1980s. The professional National Guinean Ballet, which emerged after independence, has retained some of the dance and music of the distinct ethnic and regional groups. Creative accomplishments in modern dance and popular music have given Guinean musicians and singers an international reputation. Handicrafts in Guinea, as elsewhere in Africa, declined sharply during the colonial era with competition from manufactured consumer goods. The lack of tourism and creative marketing since independence has limited the amount of change and innovation in local crafts, so that the leatherwork, wood carving, and jewelry produced in Guinea tend to be more genuinely ethnic than elsewhere in western Africa.

Equitorial Guinea - Culture Overview Equatorial Guinea is one of the smallest countries in Africa, but its history is very complicated. The nation includes a mainland territory and five offshore islands. The island of Bioko (once called Fernando Po) has been most important to the unfolding of the colonial past and is therefore the site of the capital city, Malabo. The island is also the area of greater development. Equatorial Guinea is the only African country to have been colonized by the Spanish, though the Portuguese and the British played important roles in the development of colonialism there as in many other countries along Africa's west coast. The best-known folklore of Equatorial Guinea is that of the Fang. Sometimes this folklore is referred to by the name of mvet, a guitar-like instrument that the Fang balladeers play as they recount the tales and history of their people. Often they use such other instruments as the xylophone, great drums, and a wooden trumpet. The mvet musicians play a vital role in religious and other ceremonial occasions and many of their songs have been copied by interested outsiders. Equatorial Guinea also possesses a Spanish language literature that is largely dedicated to autobiographical accounts of the country's ongoing political turmoil. The residence for the Spanish colonial government was located in the city of Malabo, and many of the city's landmarks recall its presence. Most dramatic is the Gothic Cathedral with its stained glass rose windows, its high ceilings, and ornate sermon platform. The courthouse is an unusual three-story building. In the principal mainland city, Bata, cultural centers house the masks carved by local people. These masks have a reputation for being among the finest in Africa.

The lay of the land: I will provide more details the Slave Route in the next edition of Africa Travel Magazine, and elaborate on other facets of our congress activities and travels in Guinea. We plan to organize tours from Canada and the USA to Guinea starting in 2003, and this Slave Route experience will be high on our agenda.

There are 4 distinct areas designated by relief, climate, flora and fauna, which are reflected in Guinea's history and traditions.
