Sangha OSM
Sangha or saṃgha () is a term meaning "association", "assembly", "company" or "community".

Nola, Central African Republic
Nola is the capital of Sangha-Mbaéré, an economic prefecture of the Central African Republic. It is located at the confluence of the Kadéï and the Mambere river. The Sangha River is formed here due to the aforementioned rivers. History In 1911, the area around Bouar was ceded by France to Germany under the terms of the Morocco-Congo Treaty, becoming part of the German colony of Neukamerun until it was reconquered by the French during World War I. During the war, local Gbaya chief Daddio provided many canoes to French Lieutenant Colonel Nicolas Hutin to help the French retake Nola from the Germans. Another local chief, Ngoukou I, also helped fight against the Germans. Sleeping sickness had long been an issue in the areas around Nola. During the colonial period, French authorities embarked on a risky and now-disproven prophylactic campaign called 'lomidinisation'. Nola and Yokadouma in the French Congo were the centre of this misguided immunisation campaign. On 28 March ...

Tributary
A tributary, or an ''affluent'', is a stream or river that flows into a larger stream (''main stem'' or ''"parent"''), river, or a lake. A tributary does not flow directly into a sea or ocean. Tributaries, and the main stem river into which they flow, drain the surrounding drainage basin of its surface water and groundwater, leading the water out into an ocean, another river, or into an endorheic basin. The Irtysh is a chief tributary of the Ob (river), Ob river and is also the longest tributary river in the world with a length of . The Madeira River is the largest tributary river by volume in the world with an average discharge of . A confluence, where two or more bodies of water meet, usually refers to the joining of tributaries. The opposite to a tributary is a distributary, a river or stream that branches off from and flows away from the main stream.
