Cameroon War
Cameroonian war of independence from France
The Cameroon War was a conflict in Cameroon between 1955 and 1964, initially as an independence struggle against French colonial rule, led by the Cameroonian Peoples Union (UPC), and then, after Cameroonian independence in 1960, as a civil war between the Cameroonian government and UPC rebels, later joined by André-Marie Mbida and his party, who opposed Ahmadou Ahidjo's single-party regime.
