Who they are
The Bideyat form a subgroup of the Zaghawa people, inhabiting arid regions between eastern Chad and western Sudan. Known for their resilience in the desert, they maintain a strong clan structure and a tradition of pastoralism and trans-Saharan trade. Their cultural identity is deeply intertwined with the practice of Islam, passed down through generations.
