==History== The earliest settlers of Wele-Nzas, and the only inhabitants of the region for nearly 15,000 years, were the Gyele (Byele) peoples. Bantu migration ultimately displaced the Gyele, and during the 20th century the last of the Gyele migrated to Cameroon. The Fang people ultimately became the predominant ethnic group in the province. As European explorers mostly avoided the interior of Equatorial Guinea, there are few accounts of the region in early European histories; even the Spanish governors of the region did not visit Wele-Nzas until the official formation of Spanish Guinea in 1926.
