West Africa.
Chad, which under colonial rule, was part of
Equatorial Guinea, gained its independence from
France in 1960.
It occupies a large, landlocked, landmass of
1,284,000 square kilometres. The northern part
of the country is occupied by the Sahara desert,
culminating in the arid plains of the Sahel.
The granite terrain ascends ruggedly to the Tibesti
mountains, reaching up to 3,415 metres at the
peak. The Sudan borders the Chadian eastern plateaux.
Lake
Chad straddles the southwest. N'Djamena is the
capital, with an average temperature of 820F or
280C. Lake Chad has been inhabited since about
500 BC.
The economy is agriculture based; however, cotton
makes up the bulk of the export product, followed
by meat and gum. Other products include: gin,
cassava, millet, yams, peanuts, rice, corn, dates,
pulses, and sweet potatoes. Cattle, sheep, and
goats are also farmed for domestic and export
purposes.
Industries include: sugar and textile refineries,
and cotton gin. Gold, bauxite, uranium, and tungsten
are some of the mineral deposits of the Chad basin.
