註釋Chad is a landlocked country located in Central Africa. It is bordered by Sudan to the east, Libya to the north, Niger, Nigeria, and Cameroon to the west, and the Central African Republic to the south. With an area of 1.28 million square kilometers, Chad is the fifth largest country in Africa. It has a population of approximately 16 million people, who are largely concentrated in the southern region of the country. The capital city of Chad is N'Djamena, which is located in the southwestern part of the country. Chad is a diverse country with more than 200 ethnic groups. The major ethnic groups are the Chadian Arabs, Chadian Sara, Chadian Gorane, and Chadian Mayo-Kebbi. French and Arabic are the official languages of Chad, although over 100 other languages are spoken in the country. Chad is an agricultural country, with cotton, sorghum, and millet being the main crops. The country is also rich in natural resources, including gold, uranium, and petroleum, which are relatively unexplored. Chad has been plagued by political instability, social unrest, and poverty for many years. However, in recent years, it has made progress in economic development and peacebuilding efforts, thanks to international support and political will.
