Detailed explanation-1: -The Tuareg inhabit the Saharan regions of North Africa-Niger, Mali, Libya, Algeria and Burkina Faso. Tuareg is an Arabic term meaning abandoned by God. They call themselves Imohag, translated as free men. No one knows the true origin of the Tuareg, where they came from or when they arrived in the Sahara.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Tuareg are a nomadic group of people in North and West Africa. Nomadic people (nomads) travel from place to place. In the late 1900s there were about 900, 000 Tuareg. The Tuareg live in such countries as Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Niger, and Mali.
Detailed explanation-3: -While Tuareg resentment towards the Malian and Niger governments heightened, they began to migrate en masse to Libya (and Algeria) due to the extreme drought.
Detailed explanation-4: -Most Tuareg live in the Saharan parts of Niger, Mali, and Algeria. Being nomadic, they move constantly across national borders and small groups of Tuareg also live in southeastern Algeria, southwestern Libya, northern Burkina Faso and a small community in northern Nigeria.
