Tado (formerly Ezame) is a historical village in southeast Togo, alongside the Mono River, near the border with Benin, in between Notsé in the center south of Togo and Abomey in Benin, two cities connected to its history. Tado is the former royal city of the Kingdom Of Tado, one of the oldest, longest-standing and most powerful kingdoms of south west Africa. Tado is the birthplace of many west african tribes, civilisations, cultures, kingdoms and bloodlines that have spread across Togo, Benin, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Nigeria, through a kingdom that lasted over 900 years.
