  QUIZ QUESTIONS                    

 1.   When did Chad get her independence? Who was the first Leader of the Independent Chad?

2.     Chad is a landlocked country like the few we have studied.
This means that it does not have an outlet to the ocean 
or sea.  It is surrounded by other countries.  Name the
5 countries that surround Chad.

3. This country got its name from the lake that supplies it with
its main source of water--LAKE CHAD.  Lake Chad provides 
water for over 30 million people living in the countries that
surround it--Chad, Cameroon, Niger and Nigeria. This is the
largest lake in the Chad Basin. It is the second largest lake
in Africa.  It is reported that over 200 different ethnic
and linguistic groups live in Chad. What are the two official
languages that are spoken in Chad?
a. Kiswahili and Zulu
b. Arabic and French
c. English and Shona
d. Dan and Mah
e. Yoruba and Igbo

4. In the history of Chad, one name predominates--and that is,  François Tombalbaye.  He was one of 15,000 soldiers from 
Chad that fought in World War II among the Free French
Forces from Chad. How did his country reward him--
what position did he receive to serve his country?

5. Before and after independence on August 11, 1960, 
there was a political party in Chad called PPT (Chadian
 Progressive Party). It was the largest political party.
Its leader became the first president of Chad.  After
a few years in power, he banned all parties and established
one political party, his party. He became corrupt and
 turned into an autocratic ruler, very insensitive and
he mismanaged his administration.  In 1965, Chad had
and civil war like we had in Liberia and the ruler was
killed.  Who was this ruler?  Who took the helm of 
leadership after this ruler that was killed? The new leader
became more corrupt than the first ruler.  During his
administration, he killed over 40,000 Chadians.  Who was
this man? Clue--He was a member of the Daza ethnic group

 Listen to the   
National Anthems of All 

            African Countries
Every day a different African country's national     Anthem will play the entire day on this page.   This gives us an opportunity to listen to all the
National Anthems of each country in Africa.   There are 53 countries in Africa.  Some have
said that Liberia has one of the best Anthems
in the world.  Now we can listen to all the 
National Anthems of Africa and compare ours
with theirs.

The other reason for this exercise
is to provide our people the opportunity to
listen to, and to learn about other African
countries, see their flags, hear their National
Anthems, and enjoy the very beautiful music
we call, a country's National Anthem. Much
of our information comes from Nationalanthem.info. 
  
Please take note of the dates each
country's Anthem is played.  We begin with
South Africa on the 5th of August and end with
São Tomé and Principe on September 24, 2013.
 
If you want to know more about any of the
African countries, just click on the name of 
the particular country below on the left in blue among the list of 53 countries and you will have the information right there at your finger tip.
__________________________________________


One interesting factor about the listing of the 
African countries in the order in which they are
listed.  They are listed with the country with the
highest per capital income above and the lowest
per capital income at the bottom of the list. Liberia
is 6 up from the bottom.   Total number of countries
is 53.

Peuple Tchadien, debout et à l'ouvrage !
Tu as conquis la terre et ton droit ;
Ta liberté naîtra de ton courage.
Lève les yeux, l'avenir est à Toi.


Ô mon Pays, que Dieu te prenne en garde,
Que tes voisins admirent tes enfants.
Joyeux, pacifique, avance en chantant,
Fidèle à tes anciens qui te regardent.


Peuple Tchadien, debout et à l'ouvrage !
Tu as conquis la terre et ton droit ;
Ta liberté naîtra de ton courage.
Lève les yeux, l'avenir est à Toi.

People of Chad, arise and to work!
You have conquered the soil and won your rights;
Your freedom will be born of your courage.
Lift up your eyes, the future is yours.


O my Country, may God protect you,
May your neighbours admire your children.
Joyful, peaceful, advance as you sing,
Faithful to your fathers who are watching you.


People of Chad, arise and to work!
You have conquered the soil and won your rights;
Your freedom will be born of your courage.
Lift up your eyes, the future is yours.
