Mora, Cameroon

Mora is a town in northern Cameroon. Mora has a population of 55,216 making it the 5th biggest city in Far North.

The German fort of Mora was the last German fort in Cameroon to surrender during World War I. After a long time under siege, Captain Ernst von Raben and his men surrendered to the allied forces on February 20, 1916, over a year after the rest of the German army withdrew out of Cameroon. Many German troops escaped to the neutral Spanish colony of Río Muni.
