L'Américaine au Cameroun

I've uploaded some photos to share.

Most of the Bangou photos were taken on a PC trip to the chefferie. Here, the chefs are the traditional rulers and are sort of like crosses between kings and mayors. They are definitely 'nobles' and are given the respect as such. But it seems to me to be a lot more practical that what the American idea of a king might be. Before colonization, they were the system for keeping law and order. Now, there are traditional rulers and legal rulers.
