Chari-Baguirmi Region, Administrative region in central Chad
The Chari-Baguirmi region extends across a vast territory with the Chari River flowing through its western and southern sections, supporting agricultural activities.
The region emerged from the former Sultanate of Bagirmi, which governed from its capital Massenya between the late 15th and 19th centuries.
The population includes diverse ethnic groups such as Chadian Arabs, Bagirmi, Fula, Gadang, Kanuri, and Kwang, each maintaining distinct traditions.
Transportation networks connect major settlements including Massenya, Bousso, Dourbali, and Mandélia, though many roads require maintenance during rainy seasons.
The region contains areas known as 'Women's Land' where queens held authority, preserving elements of historical matriarchal governance systems.
