Traditional polities

Note: This record concerns two very different polities. (A) On the island of Bioko, one of the two major components of the state's territory (formerly called Fernando Póo and, during part of the Masie Nguema regime, called Masie Nguema Biyogo), the indigenous population, the Bubi (whose name for the island was Otcho), had no state structure, but did have a supreme chief, sometimes called rey (king) by the Spanish colonial government. (B) On the part called Cabo San Juan of the mainland component of the state a "kingdom" was established before 1800; the seat of this state migrated to the island of Corisco c.1840, and in 1858 this state split into a state comprising Corisco and another back at Cabo San Juan. Here the terms "Cabo San Juan" and "Corisco," though obviously not the state's own name(s), are used. Note that almost all the dates in the following records, even rather recent ones, are tentative, and conflicting from source to source.
