Vakaga is one of the 20 prefectures of the Central African Republic.
In 2024, official estimates suggest the population reached 89,189 inhabitants.
[2] The extremely low population density, 1.1 people/km2, is a result of the capture of the majority of the region's inhabitants by slave-traders from the Sudan in the second half of the nineteenth century.
[citation needed] Vakaga is known for its oil reserves.
