Une Démocratie Africaine plot

Can we talk about democracy in an African kingdom where kings have succeeded each other for centuries by inheritance? Can democracy and monarchy coexist? During a trip to Foumban, a region in western Cameroon, Pierre Loti Simo explores the history of the kingdom of Bamoun and discovers monarchical democracy. His journey to the oldest and most powerful kingdom of Cameroon reveals an ancient African tradition unknown to the new generation.
