Since 2017, Cameroon has seen
Since 2017, Cameroon has seen growing violence in what is generally known as the Anglophone Crisis. But what started as a conflict over decentralisation has now become a full scale effort to secure independence for the self-declared Federal Republic of Ambazonia. So, what is the conflict about? And is there any hope for an end to fighting?

The conflict in Cameroon mirrors so many similar conflicts in Africa. The product of colonial borders, and fateful decisions taken at the time of decolonisation, it saw a major part of the British Cameroons integrated into the formally French-held Republic of Cameroon as part of a newly established Federal Republic of Cameroon. However, as is so often the case, the arrangement soon broke down as the Francophone elite, representing 80% of the population, rolled back the autonomy of the English-speaking areas. After decades of repression this spilled over into armed conflict in 2017, at the same time as the Anglophone areas declared independence, as the Federal Republic of Ambazonia - named after the Ambas Bay. The question now is whether the conflict can be resolved.
