BorkouEnnediTibesti

BorkouEnnediTibesti is a former region of Chad, established in 2000 and dissolved in 2008. It was one of the country's 18 former regions, formed by the division of the larger Borkou-Ennedi-Tibesti Prefecture. The region encompassed a vast and sparsely populated desert area in northern Chad. Its geography was dominated by the Sahara Desert, featuring extensive sand dunes, rocky plateaus, and the imposing Tibesti Mountains, the highest range in Chad.

The region's administrative center was Faya-Largeau. Historically, the area has been inhabited by nomadic and semi-nomadic peoples, primarily Toubou and Zagawa groups, who have adapted to the harsh desert environment. The economy was largely based on herding and limited oasis agriculture, with some potential for mineral resources. Due to its remote location and challenging terrain, the region faced significant developmental challenges.

In 2008, Chad underwent a further administrative reorganization, and BorkouEnnediTibesti was divided into three new regions: Borkou, Ennedi Est, and Ennedi Ouest, and Tibesti. This division aimed to improve local governance and administration in the vast northern territories.
