Aouzou Strip
The Aouzou Strip (; Arabic: قطاع أوزو, romanized: Qiṭāʿ Awzū, French: Bande d'Aozou) is a strip of land in northern Chad that lies along the border with Libya, extending south to a depth of about 100 kilometers into Chad's Borkou, Ennedi Ouest, Ennedi Est, and Tibesti regions for an area of 114,000 km2. It is named after the small town and oasis of Aouzou. The strip was added to Italian Libya in 1935 for some years and played a significant role in the Chadian–Libyan War when it was claimed by Libya.
