abstract
  • Before the rise of the Kanem Empire in the region, major fighting in the area was fought between the eastern Zambir people and the Kamburi people of the north-west. However, when the Semitic and Berber people from the north came with the Kanem Empire, ethnic tensions grew before the empire, along with its people, dispersed. This led the Zambir and Kamburi people to begin clashes of the territory again before the French finally assimilated the region into the French Equatorial Africa colony. However, poor ability to control the ethnic tension allowed periodic fights to continue until the granting of overseas territory status to Chad and Kamburi-Zambir. The split between the colonies, and the inability to make distinctions between the true owners of Sarh would eventually contribute to the outbreak of hostilities. However, the major contributing factor to the conflict would be the final partition of the nations over eight days between August 11 (Chadian independence) and August 19 (Kamburian independence). Unable to firmly partition the town of Sarh to one nation or the other left the French little space to move on the issue. Thus, when Kamburi finally became independent, the town was partitioned into two sections, separated by the Chari river. However, both nations immediately after their respective independence claimed the town, and tensions began to build, especially with infighting within the town between the Chadian residents and the Kamburian residents.
