7 Facts about Chad

Chad is a country that sits right in the middle of Africa. It is sometimes referred to as the “Dead heart of Africa”, due to its vast, mostly uninhabited deserts. Despite this, its natural landscapes are breathtakingly beautiful and even if the political struggles define its modern history, it is still well worth discovering.

More information about the video content bellow:
1. Chad -it is about the size of Spain, France and Greece combined-- is famous in the world as the home to up to 200 ethnic groups. Few countries have so many ethnic groups like this unknown African republic. For this reason, over 100 languages are spoken across the nation.

2. The Ennedi Desert used to be underwater, so it has many rock formations and sea arches. It is located in the Sahara desert in northeastern Chad.

3. The republic is home to one of the most beautiful natural wonders of the world: the Lake Chad (6,875 square miles /17,806 square kilometers). This African wonder is the world's 17th-largest lake. Curiously, it is about the size of the American State of Hawaii. Since the 2000s it is the nation's greatest tourist attraction.

4. The Sahara Desert covers much of northern Chad and occupies roughly 1/3rd of the country’s total area.

5. Zakouma National Park is located on an immense plain across which the Bahr Salamat and its tributaries flow from north to south. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It also has 226 documented bird species for the bird watchers.

6. Chad australopithecine in an early hominid between two hundred thousand and five hundred thousand years old found in the southeast of Chad, along with the teeth of an extinct elephant.

7. A long civil war plagued the country from 1965 to 1979. Violence, coups d-etat and rebellions had occurred periodically since then. Chad remains plagued by political violence and recurrent attempted coups d'état. Chad is one of the poorest and most corrupt countries in the world; most inhabitants live in poverty as subsistence herders and farmers.
