N'DéléorNdele is a market town and sub prefecture in the north eastern Central African Republic, lying east of the Bamingui-Bangoran National Park. Ndélé is the capital of Bamingui-Bangoran, one of the 16 prefectures of the Central African Republic. N'Délé had a population of 10,850 as of the 2003 census; and a calculated 2013 population of 13,704.[3]

History

[edit]
The market at N'Délé during the 19th century.

The tata, or fortified wall, creates a citadel-like palace on a hill overlooking N'Délé. It was constructed at the behest of Sultan Mohammed al-SanussiofDar al Kuti in the late 19th century.[4] N'Délé, the tata, and the Kaga-Kpoungouvou Caves were collectively added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on April 11, 2006, in the Cultural category.[4] In 1970, N'Délé received electricity.[5]

When the fighting resumed in December 2012 between the FACA loyalists and the rebel coalition of Séléka, the city fell to rebel forces.[6][7] In 2020 heavy clashes erupted in the city between ex-Séléka FPRC and RPRC groups resulting in dozens people being killed. On 27 June 2021 N'Délé was recaptured by government forces.[8]

Climate

[edit]

N'Délé has a tropical savanna climate (Köppen climate classification Aw) with a sweltering and arid dry season from November to mid-April and a hot and humid wet season – milder than the dry season by temperature but equally or more uncomfortable due to much higher humidity – from mid-April to the end of October.
