The Bamoun kingdom, located in the mountains of western Cameroon, has forged its unity over the seven centuries of the kingdom's existence since the end of the fourteenth century. The king of the Bamouns is from the dynasty of Nchare Yen, who came from Rifum (Mbankim). The religious beliefs in force in this region today are Islam, which came from the north, and Christianity, which came from the south.

Geography
With an area of approximately 7,700 km2 and 820,000 inhabitants1, the Noun region covers more than half of the current West Region.
The kingdom consists of a high plateau (700m) to the west, surmounted by three aligned massifs( Mbapit (1,910 m), Nkogham and Mbam (2,200 m)) and a steep-sided plain at the foot of the cliff east of Foumban; this plain runs along the bank of the Mbam to the point of confluence with the Noun near Bafia.
The country borders the Kingdom of La'djo and is separated from it by the Noun.
