Equatorial Guinea is located on the west coast of Central Africa and is the only African country where Spanish is an official language. The country consists of a mainland region (Río Muni) and several islands, including Bioko Island, where the capital Malabo is located. Equatorial Guinea is rich in oil reserves – oil exports account for over 90% of its GDP. Interesting fact: Equatorial Guinea has one of the highest literacy rates in Africa.
