14. Equatorial Guinea Transportation
Transportation[edit]
Main article: Transport in Equatorial Guinea
Due to the large oil industry in the country, internationally recognized carriers fly to Malabo International Airport which, as of May 2014, had several direct connections to Europe and West Africa. There are only three airports in Equatorial Guinea: Malabo International Airport, Bata Airport and the new Annobon Airport on the island of Annobon. Malabo International Airport is the only international airport in the country. It is very hard to travel around Equatorial Guinea by plane. It's more usual to use a bus, taxi, boat (to travel from one of the islands to Rio Muni) and car.
Every airline registered in the country appears on the list of air carriers prohibited in the European Union (EU) which means that they are banned for safety reasons from operating services of any kind within the EU

Equatorial Guinea is the only country in Africa that has Spanish as an official language. However, unlike the rest of the countries that make up the VeinteMundos, Spanish is not the first/primary language for the majority of the population (although it is still spoken by an estimated 89% of the country). Guinean Spanish is characterized by a strong influence from local tribal languages as well as from Pichininglish (pidgeon/pidgin English), French, and in some cases Portuguese and German. In some places the r is guttural similar to French. In general the language spoken here has a greater resemblance to Castillian Spanish than American Spanish; for example, the use of "vosotros" as 2nd person plural. Differences can be noted between the Spanish spoken by those of different ethnic groups.

The sub-species is still relatively unknown, related to the difficulties in observing these animals in the (dense) rainforest as they travel in search of food. dzanga-sangha.org

21. Equatorial Guinea Gorillas

22. Interesting Physical Characteristics
The largest primate is the Gorilla, which can weigh up to 600 pounds.
Unlike humans, gorillas have an opposable big toe, as well as thumb. Therefore they can manipulate objects with their feet as well as their hands.
They have fingernails and toenails instead of claws.
This is true for all primates.
Most gorillas have dark skin, and black to brown hair except the Silverbacks.
They develop silver hair across their backs and thighs as they go through puberty and sexually mature.
This creates the illusion that they are bigger than they are!
Gorillas are social animals living in groups known as Troops. animals-zone.com
