N'Djamena, Chad
Travel notes. Day 6
Small game for fans of Africa. After independence in the middle of the last century, this country has gone through a series of military coups and civil conflicts. Most recently, the rebels were trying to drive out the local dictator who came to power through a military coup, but failed. Below the poverty line - 80% of the population. What kind of country is this? That's right - almost every African country fits that description, but today we will talk about Chad.
The country's capital, Ndjamena. Lives there are almost one million people.
I skip to the good news. In Chad, I was eating soup!
