Education in Gabon is largely based on the French educational system. On the federal level, it is regulated by two Ministries: the Ministry of Education, which is in charge of pre-kindergarten through High School, and the Ministry of Higher Education and Innovative Technologies, which is in charge of universities and professional schools.
As a predominantly Christian nation, religious celebrations are widely observed throughout Gabon, along with other traditions involving faith like Ramadan.
Gabon is a country in West Africa, lying along the Atlantic Ocean, just south of the Bight of Biafra.
