The Wadai Sultanate was a state located near Lake Chad. Its population, descended from both Arabs and natives, formed into a single nation in the 15th and 16th centuries during the struggle against the Tunjur and Darfur kingdoms. Its population had the most Arab influence of any nation in the Central Sudan region. The ruling class were the Maba people, whose language was used throughout Wadai.[1]
