    A landlocked, some say failed state in the dead heart of Africa, this desert country is home to the largest mountain chain in the Sahara.

    In this thread I will endeavour to answer any and all of your burning questions about Chad!

    Life expectancy in Chad is an average of just 47 and a half years.

    For you, I would recommend the capital N'Djamena's most famous restaurant, the Carnivore.

    While not a dish native to Chad, and being a landlocked country all sea fish must be imported and can be expensive, the Chadians are a resourceful bunch. I'm sure if you were explain the dish to a restarateur and offer him a few Francs, he would be able to rustle something up.

    There aren't very many raves in Chad, but there is a vibrant indigenous music scene and I believe very few people have heard of Cliff Richard.

    Yes of course, though they can be a little hard to come by. The country has 9 ISPs and just 35,000 internet users.

    They certainly will. The nation's number one newspaper is the Ndjamena Hebdo, there is one broadcast television station and a number of FM and AM radio stations.

    Chad has some breathtaking scenery, from the vast desolate plains of the sahara:

    Have any of the inhabitants of Chad ever seen the film Chud?

    Or for that matter, Chud 2: Bud the Chud?
