Tuareg Camelry

The Tuareg Camelry are the mahrī riders of the deep Sahara — men the Arabic geographers count among the Ṣanhāja and know by their veils, mounted on racing dromedaries bred for speed across the great erg and hamada, carrying the long lance and the takouba for the close work after a camel charge has scattered a column. They raid the caravan roads and they also guard them, taking payment to escort and to guide, and taxing the traffic wherever they hold the wells. Three days of march where horse cavalry must halt for water makes them masters of corridors no settled army can police. This camelry tradition gives our confederations a raiding and long-range patrol arm that no rival within a thousand leagues of the desert can match.
