Abiras
Abiras or les Abiras〔"(Oubangui-Chari )". 1910.〕 is a former settlement which was located on the northern bank of the Ubangi River at its source, the confluence of the Mbomou and Welle rivers. It was located opposite from the Congolese city of Yakoma in the area of the present-day Central African Republic.
It was not until 1882 or ’83 that the German explorer Wilhelm Junker established that the Welle flowed into the Mbomou; the Belgian agent Alphonse Vangele established the Yakoma post in 1890. The Frenchman Gaston Gaillard then received a grant from the Yakoma leader Inkesse on the north bank〔Kalck, Pierre and trans. by Xavier-Samuel Kalck. (''Historical Dictionary of the Central African Republic'', 3rd ed., p. 81: "Gaillard, Gaston" ). Scarecrow Press (Lanham), 2005. Accessed 30 Mar 2014.〕 and established Abiras on September 7, 1891.〔''The World at War'': "(Ubangi-Shari 1870–1960 )". Accessed 30 Mar 2014.〕 During the initial French settlement of central Africa, Abiras served as the capital of the French Congo's territory of Upper Ubangi (''フランス語:Haut-Oubangui'') and then as the first capital of the colony of Ubangi-Shari (''フランス語:Oubangui-Chari'').〔"(Chad and Ubangi-Shari to 1922 )".〕 It was replaced in 1906 first by Fort de Possel and then by Bangi, the present-day Bangui.〔''World Statesmen''.
