Chad

Discover essential information about Chad

Chad is a landlocked country in North-Central Africa, bordered by Libya, Sudan, the Central African Republic, Cameroon, Nigeria, and Niger. Described as the "Dead Heart of Africa" by some, it transitions dramatically from the Sahara Desert in the north to the Sahel scrublands in the center and the more fertile Lake Chad basin in the south—a vital water source for millions of people across four countries.
