N'Djamena, the capital of the Republic of Chad, is located in the southwestern part of the country, at the confluence of the Shari and Logone rivers, across the river from Cameroon, and is the largest city and the political, economic and cultural center of Chad. As an important gateway to the landlocked country, the city has Chad's only international airport, which is a transportation hub connecting the country and abroad, as well as a trade hub for the neighboring regions, where major agricultural products such as cotton and peanuts are distributed. The city has a population of about 1.5 million and is multi-ethnic, with Arabic and French as the common languages. N'Djamena has a long history of blending tradition and modernity, with busy markets and cultural landmarks such as the National Museum, and continues to play a central role in Chad's development as the "heart" of the country, despite infrastructure challenges.
