Central Sudanic languages

Central Sudanic is usually divided into East and West. Eastern Central Sudanic languages (not to be confused with Eastern Sudanic languages) include such languages as Lendu, Mangbetu, and Lugbara. The western division includes the Bongo-Bagirmi languages (e.g. Baka, Bongo, Kara), and the Kresh languages Gbaya and Aja (endangered).
