Moyen-Chari Region, Administrative region in southern Chad

The Moyen-Chari region spans 40,300 square kilometers of savannah terrain, incorporating Lake Iro and sections of Manda National Park within its boundaries.

French authorities established the territorial division in 1900 through a decree signed by President Émile Loubet, incorporating it into the Oubangui-Chari-Tchad system.

The region contains multiple ethnic groups speaking languages including Chadian Arabic, Gula, Kaba, Laal, Lutos, Ndam, Niellim, Sara, Tumak, and Tunia.

Sarh, the regional capital and third largest city in Chad, functions as the primary commercial center with markets supporting agricultural trade.

Lake Iro, located in the northeastern section of Moyen-Chari, presents geological interest as researchers identify it as a potential impact crater.
