The German fort of Mora was the last German fort in Cameroon to surrender during World War I. After a long time under siege by allied forces, Captain von Raben and his men surrendered to the allied forces on February 20, 1916, over a year after the rest of the German army withdrew out of Cameroon. Many German troops escaped to the neutral Spanish colony of Río Muni.
