Games played in Chad (Mancala and War) The Seasons of L ife Giving Birth Building a home Marriage Death Cultural Titbits It is believed that if too many eyes look at a tree that it will either die or not produce fruit. This is why most people sitting under a tree in a village are not looking up into the tree as they talk, but rather out in the distance. In the villages, it is the popular belief that if you take some of the dry matter from the corner of a dog's eye and put it in your own, that you will see demons. Please, do not ever try this (it is not safe, hygienic, or wise), but if you do, you are advised to try only one eye at first and to have soap and water at hand to wash it out in a hurry if the experience proves too scary for you. You have been warned! Because the weather year-round is often sunny, we actually consider rainy days to be "good weather", and an extended period of sunny days (especially during the rainy season) as "bad weather".

Africa : Chad Chad Culture With over 100 languages spoken, three major religions, three climatic zones and an ancient history, the culture of Chad is rich, diverse and complex. This complexity makes it extremely difficult to make general statements about the nation's culture as what is important for one group or region may not hold for another. In the northern third of the country, in the heart of the Sahara, the Toubou people are in the majority. They are descendents of Berber migrants and are, like the Arabs to the south, Muslim. They are herders and nomads, fiercely independent, strong in battle and extremely clan-oriented. Each clan has access to specific wells, pastures and oases. Despite only numbering 150,000 people, the Toubou have controlled Chad since 1982. Another broad grouping with a distinct cultural influence is the Arabs, concentrated in the middle third of Chad and making up a third of Chad's population. Chadian Arabs are mostly seminomads, grazing their herds over the Sahel. There are many diverse ethnic subgroups under the 'Arab' banner. The Maba people have a unique form of social structure originating in pre-Islamic times, based on four age grades. Cutting across kin and class divisions, people born within a certain time-frame move from one grade to another, bound by friendships and obligations for mutual aid. In the capital, you might be lucky enough to hear Arabic musicians playing traditional music. These people are usually from the

Culture Page on Chad Cultures: One culture of Chad is a distinct culture of the Arabs, concentrated in the middle third of Chad and making up a third of Chad's population. Chadian Arabs are mostly seminomads, grazing their herds over the Sahel. There are many diverse ethnic subgroups under the 'Arab' banner. Here is a list of Ethnic Groups of Chad. Arabs Toubou Hadjera Fulbe Kotoko Kanembou Baguirmi Boulala Zaghawa Maba Sara Ngambaye Mbayei Goulaye Moundang Mousseii Massa Non-indigenous Music: Picture of a music festival in Chad. Art: People making pots in Chad. People: People in Chad are mostly Black African and non-Muslim. About a sixth of these people are Catholic, with most practicing traditionalfaiths. About 30% of Chad's population is made up of the Sara from this region. Over the past 500 years, these people have been subjected to some of the most inhumane treatment of any Africans on the continent. Many traditional cultural systems broke down over centuries of forced labor, mono-crop cotton farming and tax collection that undermined village chiefs. Yet the Sara have exhibited fierce survival skills to survive. Holidays: People celebrating Independence Day in Chad.
