Chad at a glance
Chad is in Middle Africa and is landlocked. It borders Cameroon, Central African Republic, Libya, Niger, Nigeria and Sudan. Its capital is N'Djamena. About 21 million people live there (2025), the 64th largest population of the 197 countries, and it covers 1.28 million km², the 20th largest by area.
Flag tip: Romania's flag is almost identical. Chad's blue is a deeper navy: think of the night sky over the Sahara.
