After the end of World War II, relying on the east wind of national awakening, countless new countries sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. However, these countries that became independent from the old colonial system were generally inseparable from the influence of the former sovereign state.
Even its domestic political structure and ecology are not defined according to the situation of its own country, but are determined by imitating the former sovereign state. At first glance, it seems that there is no problem, but everyone with a big egg knows that it is easy to pull off the big steps. to the egg.
The political structure of the sovereign country was finalized after years of political and economic development. Just like the British Whitehall civil servants are the only ones in the world, there will never be another Sir Humphrey in the world.
But there is nothing that can be done, because with the disintegration of the old world order, the colonies that used to continuously provide human resources for the suzerain country have become a burden that drags down the suzerain country.
In order to get rid of these burdens, the sovereign country will not slowly teach the colonies how to truly become independent. After all, the colonies are truly independent. Who will pay the bills of the sovereign country?
This is the situation in Chad. Because it is located in the center of Africa and surrounded by many countries, there are nearly 200 ethnic groups in Chad. In addition, Chad’s climate conditions and geographical location are also quite arbitrary. Most of the country is desert, except for a part of the south. It's grassland.
The same rice can feed all kinds of people, not to mention that the food and climate between the north and the south are different, so the differences between the north and the south are highlighted. The nomadic people in the north believe in Christianity, while the black uncles who farm in the south have a mess of beliefs. Local sects, and when the Mediterranean sea route was developed, those northern Turks who were influenced by the Ottomans often came to the south to plow the valleys.
After France colonized Chad, because there was really little oil and water in the desert, France only cultivated some cotton fields in the southern grassland areas, while the northern deserts were simply abandoned. After all, the Parisians could not be allowed to collect sand from the north. Taxation, right?
After Chad became independent, the Chadians who believed in Christianity in the south naturally became members of the Chadian government. As for the Communists in the north, they were not familiar with it, really not familiar with it!
The southern government not only did not allow the northerners to enter the government, but even oppressed and exploited them as second-class citizens. The northerners not only had to bear corvees, but also had more than 200 taxes. You must know that when the French colonized , but the black uncle who exploited the north and the south equally, how come you are independent, and you southerners still think of yourself as superior to others?
Thus, the civil war began. Chad was divided into the government forces in the south and the Chad Liberation Front in the north. The fighting capabilities of the former and the latter can be seen just by looking at their names. If the government forces had not been helped by France, they would not have been a match for the north at all. .
However, the south was supported by France, and there were oil fields that the French valued most. Therefore, de Gaulle, then French President, naturally had no choice but to ask the French army to help the government forces quell the rebellion.
Naturally, the Frente Liberation Army was no match for the French army. When they were on the verge of extinction, they received support from their northern neighbor, the destroyer of the Five Permanent Forces, the savior of Africa, the King of Kings, Colonel Gaddafi of Libya, because Libya and Chad had a In terms of territorial disputes, Libya has a strong claim to the Auzou region in northern Chad. There are uranium mines in this area, so Colonel Gaddafi is bound to win it.
Because years of civil war have caused Chadian people to flee in large numbers, the miserable neighboring countries can only step in to mediate between the two sides. Under such circumstances, Tombabaye and Gaddafi hit it off immediately, and the two sides not only became iron buddies Good brother, we also solved the land dispute by the way!
Gaddafi transferred $40 million to Tombabaye's bank account, and the Ozu region belongs to Gaddafi! After losing Gaddafi's support, FRELIMO fell into dire straits again. Tombabaye thought he could continue to make big profits in Chad. Unexpectedly, the army he had purged many times suddenly launched an attack. coup.
Tombabaye has since been offline. He was beaten into a sieve by the army in his pajamas!
The coup army then elected former armed forces commander Felix Malum as head of state.
Malum changed his mind and began to actively release peace signals, trying to get all parties in Chad to stop the war and return to the negotiating table. However, the problem is that Chad's problems can never be solved domestically, and there are still problems abroad. card
Zafi!
Because of Tombabaye's death, the Chadian government no longer recognized the Auzou region as belonging to Libya. Therefore, Gaddafi could only negotiate terms with the Front for Liberation Army (FLP) again, hoping that both parties would jointly overthrow the Chadian government.
However, due to Gaddafi's previous betrayal, the FLO's attitude towards Gaddafi also split. The FLU became the Vulcan Army led by Guchuni and the Northern Armed Forces led by Habré. .
After that, the situation in Chad became difficult for anyone to understand. The government forces and the other three factions were all at war. The Libyan Army and the Vulcan Army allied themselves against the Northern Armed Forces and the government forces, while the Northern Armed Forces It was a war with all the other three families.
The result of this war was that Habred's army was driven to the border. Libya and the Vulcan Army were victorious, and they were about to overthrow the current government of Chad.
Then, the current Chadian government invited France to send troops and Habré to form an alliance. The two sides evolved into a two-on-two situation.
Under the mediation of France, this war turned into a situation where Chad was divided between the north and the south. If nothing unexpected happened, Chad would become two countries in the future, but the accident happened without any surprise!
Conflicts broke out between the Libyan army and the Vulcan Army in the north, and the conflict broke out between the government troops and the northern army in the south. As a result, the Vulcan Army and the northern armed forces, which had split from FPL, united.
But this time, the Chadian government forces were completely defeated. The then president Malum stepped down, and the FMLN became the actual controller of Chad.
But this is still not the end, because of factional conflicts. After the FPL occupied the capital, the leader of the Vulcan Army, Gucuni, who became the new president, once again united with Gaddafi.
This time, the Libyan army had strong support from the Soviet Union. It not only had a large amount of cutting-edge equipment, but also had elite soldiers trained by Soviet instructors and rigorous plans. As a result, Habré, who served as Defense Minister, and his army failed again and were defeated. Arrived at the border.
But this time, Habré found a powerful helper, the United States, which wanted to contain the Soviet Union. At this time, Gukhuni and Gaddafi were once again split. Therefore, with the support of the Americans, Habré could easily Relaxedly returned to his promised land, N'Djamena, the capital of Chad!
