It was established as a protectorate in 1843. Its total area was under 36 km2, and the estimated population in 1910 was 2,950 people. It depended on the governor-general based in Santa Isabel, who had lieutenant governors in Annobón and Elobey Chico.

All of Spain's colonial possessions in Guinea were administratively unified in 1926 to form Spanish Guinea, which later became independent in 1968 as Equatorial Guinea. Elobey Grande, Elobey Chico, and Corisco are now part of the Litoral Province within Río Muni on the mainland, while Annobón constitutes a province in its own right within the Insular Region.

History

Template:See also Annobón was discovered by the Portuguese on 1 January 1472 - hence the name, {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} (Template:Small "Good Year"), from New Year's Day (Template:Langx).

The Spanish domination in the islands dates back to 1777. Annobón was ceded to Spain together with Fernando Po through the 1778 Treaty of El Pardo, in exchange for some territories to the south of Brazil. In 1959 Annobón was unified with the Template:Ill, while Elobey and Corisco became part of the Spanish continental Guinea called Río Muni, to form the Spanish Guinea.

The known by philatelists for having issued its own postage stamps between 1903 and 1910. The first issue depicted a profile of the young Alfonso XIII of Spain, and consisted of 18 values, from ¼ centimos to 10 pesetas.

In 1905, the values of 1c to 10 ptas were reprinted, although with the same date. The 1906 issue was made by means of ratings stamped on the previous series.

Literature

The American author William Styron wrote a short vignette entitled Elobey, Annobón, and Corisco, about his time as a young Marine officer during World War II. His childhood memories of stamp collecting (including stamps from the Guinean islands) are a welcome distraction from the dread and fear he feels when he thinks of the approaching Battle of Okinawa. Although written in 1985, the vignette was not published until 2009, in the collection of Marine-related short stories The Suicide Run (Random House 2009).
