History of Cameroon
During the late 1770s and early 1800s, the Fulani, a pastoral Islamic
people of the western Sahel, conquered most of what is now northern
Cameroon, subjugating or displacing its largely non-Muslim inhabitants.
Although the Portuguese arrived on Cameroon's coast in the 1500s,
malaria prevented significant European settlement and conquest of the
interior until the late 1870s, when large supplies of the malaria
suppressant, quinine, first became available. [eng]
