Nefzaoua (Tunisian Arabic: نفزاوة) is a region of southwest Tunisia bounded by the salt lake Chott el Djerid to the west, the Grand Erg Oriental to the south, and the Dahar plateau to the east.
[1] Administratively, the territory is in the Kebili Governorate and covers 2.208 million hectares, including 15,300 hectares of oasis.
Historically the region had a population of Christian Berbers; this was supplemented by Mozarabs who left Spain due to the Reconquista.
