The 2018 African Nations Championship, known as the Total African Nations Championship (also referred to as CHAN 2018) was the 5th edition of the African Nations Championship, a biennial football tournament organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) exclusively featuring players from the respective national championships. It took place between 12 January and 4 February 2018. In February 2016, Kenya was announced as the host nation but in September 2017, CAF decided to change the host nation due to a lack of progress with preparations.[1][2] Morocco was announced as the host nation in October 2017.[3]
Unlike the African Cup of Nations, the competing national teams must be composed of players playing in their domestic league. For example, a Moroccan player is only eligible to play for the Morocco national team if he is playing for a Moroccan club.[4]
Hosts Morocco defeated Nigeria in the final to win their first title. DR Congo were the defending champions but failed to qualify for the first time ever after losing to Congo on away goals rule.

Host selection[edit]
Initially, Kenya was announced as the host nation in February 2016. But in September 2017, CAF decided to change the host nation due to a lack of progress with preparations.[5]
The CAF received three bids by the deadline of 30 September 2017 to replace Kenya as new hosts:[6]
Equatorial Guinea
Ethiopia
Morocco
The Ethiopian Football Federation did not provide the government's letter of guarantee, and were not considered. The CAF Emergency Committee decided to choose Morocco over Equatorial Guinea in October 2017.[7]
Qualification[edit]
Main article: 2018 African Nations Championship qualification
The qualifying rounds took place from April to August 2017.[8]
Since Morocco had already qualified in the North Zone before being named as replacement hosts, their spot in the final tournament was re-allocated to Egypt, which lost to Morocco in the North Zone final qualifying round.[9] However, Egypt declined to participate citing a "congested domestic calendar".[10] As a result, the spot was reverted to Central-East Zone (as originally three teams would participate including Kenya as original hosts), and would go to the winner of a play-off in November 2017 between Ethiopia and Rwanda, the two teams which lost in the Central-East Zone final qualifying round.[11]
Qualified teams[edit]
The following 16 teams qualified for the final tournament.

Before their hosting rights were withdrawn, Football Kenya Federation planned to use four stadiums as competition venues.[12] However, only Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi and Kasarani Stadium in Kasarani were considered to meet hosting requirements after CAF inspection, while Mombasa Municipal Stadium in Mombasa and Kinoru Stadium in Meru did not.[13]

Main article: 2018 African Nations Championship seeding
The draw of the final tournament was held on 17 November 2017, 19:30 WET (UTC±0), at Sofitel Rabat in Rabat, Morocco.[20]
The 16 teams were drawn into four groups of four teams.[21] The hosts Morocco were seeded in Group A. The remaining teams were seeded based on their results in the four most recent final tournaments: 2009 (multiplied by 1), 2011 (multiplied by 2), 2014 (multiplied by 3), 2016 (multiplied by 4):[22][23][24]
7 points for winner
5 points for runner-up
3 points for semi-finalists
2 points for quarter-finalists
1 point for group stage
Based on the formula above, the four pots were allocated as follows:
Pot 1

Plot[edit]
Six people called Braves of the Six Flowers are chosen by the Goddess of Fate to defeat the Demon God (魔神, Majin). However, when they gather, there are seven heroes present, leading them to believe that one is an impostor and on the side of the Demon God.
Characters[edit]
Braves[edit]
Adlet Mayer (アドレット・マイア, Adoretto Maia, Adlet Myer in the anime)
Voiced by: Sōma Saitō,[1] Miyuki Sawashiro (young) (Japanese); Robbie Daymond[2] (English)
The main protagonist. He is the self-proclaimed strongest man in the world. He fights using tools and trickery to catch his opponent off-guard. Teguneu appeared at his village when he was a child and destroyed it while capturing all the villagers except Adlet. His reason for wanting to become a Brave is revenge. Since he could not become a Saint (only women can become Saints) he went and found Altro, a hermit adept in various fighting styles and in science.
Nashetania Loei Piena Augustra (ナッシェタニア・ルーイ・ピエナ・アウグストラ, Nasshetania Rūi Piena Augusutora, Nachetanya Loei Piena Augustra in anime)
Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa[1] (Japanese); Abby Trott[2] (English)
The first princess of Piena and the Saint of Blades. She can make blades appear out of nothing to use as projectiles. Her family was killed during a civil war in Piena.
Fremy Speeddraw (フレミー・スピッドロウ, Furemī Supiddorō, Flamie Speeddraw in anime)
Voiced by: Aoi Yūki[1] (Japanese); Brianna Knickerbocker[2] (English)
A sniper known as the Six Flower Killer (Brave-Killer in anime) and the Saint of Gunpowder. She is a half-fiend who was betrayed by her mother and tribe after failing to kill Chamo, so she goes to kill the Demon God in revenge. She can create bullets and other explosives out of thin air. She loves dogs and hates humans, though it appears she has feelings for Adlet despite her denying it. Thanks to Adlet she was willing to accept the rest of the Braves as her comrades and they accepted her as well.
Goldof Auora (ゴルドフ・アウオーラ, Gorudofu Auōra, Goldov Auora in anime)
Voiced by: Kōki Uchiyama[1] (Japanese); Ray Chase[2] (English)
A young knight completely devoted to Nashetania, he wields a giant spear. He was tasked to find the Six Flower Killer. He is jealous of Adlet's closeness to the Princess. Having been saved by Nashetania when he was little, he swore to protect her ever since.
Chamo Rosso (チャモ・ロッソ, Chamo Rosso, Chamot Rosso in anime)
Voiced by: Ai Kakuma[1] (Japanese); Kira Buckland (English)
A proud little girl who is called the most powerful warrior of the current age. She is the Saint of Swamps. Every kyōma she has ever eaten lives in the swamp within her stomach. She vomits every time she uses them as weapons. She carries a small foxtail grass to help her do this. While she is powerful she often doesn't listen to others and will act on her own as she pleases.
Mora Chester (モーラ・チェスター, Mōra Chesutā, Maura Chester in anime)
Voiced by: Rina Satō[1] (Japanese); Wendee Lee[2] (English)
An extremely serious and intellectual woman. She serves as the leader of the Saints and is the Saint of Mountains. She initially suspected Adlet was the seventh even going so far as framing him for the crime of attacking Hans, which never actually happened. She is the only person Chamo will listen to.
Hans Humpty (ハンス・ハンプティ, Hansu Hanputi)
Voiced by: Kenichi Suzumura[1] (Japanese); Ben Diskin[2] (English)
A strange assassin man who mimics a cat as he talks, as well as their movement. He fences with an unworldly and peculiar skill. He is the only one who believes that the Seventh is unaware of his own status, and suspects that Adlet is the Seventh. He is the first to find out that Adlet is not the Seventh (via using his assassin techniques) and does everything in his power to prove his innocence.
Rolonia Manchetta (ロロニア・マンチェッタ, Roronia Manchetta)
Voiced by: Hisako Kanemoto
A short girl who wears cow-themed armor and glasses. She is the Saint of Fresh Blood and a childhood friend of Adlet and is adept at healing magic. She arrived at the end of the first volume, bringing the number of the braves back to 7. She was initially just a servant who washed clothes at the temple of the God of Fresh Blood. When the saint before her died, she was chosen by the god rather than all the acolytes present. She wields a whip in battle that is filled with her blood. This allows her to control it completely and one scratch can force the blood out of any opponent it touches.
Kyōma[edit]
Tgurneu (テグネウ, Teguneu)
Voiced by: Akira Ishida
One of the three kyōma leaders. He is very manipulative and loves to read poems. He believes that 'love' is the ultimate weapon.
Cargikk (カーグイック, Kāguikku)
One of the three kyōma leaders. He takes the form of a lion and treats his fellow kyōma as his children.
Dozzu (ドズー, Dozū)
One of the three kyōma leaders. He takes the form of a dog and can control lightning.

"The Strongest Man in the World"
"Chijō Saikyō no Otoko" (地上最強の男) July 4, 2015
A mysterious man named Adlet Myer, proclaiming himself to be the strongest in the world, interrupts a holy semifinal competition between two warriors. After incapacitating both warriors and the royal guards, he finds himself thrown into jail. He believes he will become a Brave, one of the six chosen warriors to fight the Demon God, and he wishes to fight alongside Princess Nachetanya, already chosen as a Brave. After moved to his prison cell, he's chosen as a Brave during one night, and Nachetanya comes and rescues him from his cell. The two of them leave the city on horseback, making their way west.
2
"The First Journey"
"Hajimete no Tabi" (初めての旅) July 11, 2015
After picking up a case from Adlet's hideout, Aldet and Nachetanya travel and then stop in an orchard, where Nachetanya shows the abilities of a Saint of Blades, a woman who's been blessed with special abilities by a god. As they continue travelling, they talk about Nachetanya's past and the Brave-Killer. They come across a village that's been terrorized by fiends, and they defeat the fiends. Adlet travels into the village to rescue someone, and meets a dangerous woman named Flamie Speeddraw. The knight Goldov appears to tell Nachetanya that Flamie is the Brave-Killer.
3
"The Girl Who Kills Braves"
"Rokka-goroshi no Shōjo" (六花殺しの少女) July 18, 2015
Flamie tells Adlet to leave her alone, stating she must fight the Demon God by herself. However, Adlet chases after her until she is forced to travel together with him. He sends a message to Nachetanya with his horse, telling her to continue towards the peninsula—where the Demon God is—without him or Flamie. Adlet and Flamie eventually run into a fortress, where soldiers explain to them about a barrier that should help the Braves in a nearby temple. As Adlet and Flamie continue to travel, they are suddenly attacked by Nachetanya and Goldov, with Nachetanya warning Adlet to stay away from Flamie.
4
"The Heroes Gather"
"Yūsha Shūketsu" (勇者集結) July 25, 2015
Flamie reveals herself to be the Brave-Killer, but that she now wishes to defeat the Demon God. Adlet convinces Nachetanya and Goldov to accept her as a Brave, and they travel onwards. They find a large number of fiends blocking the way to the barrier temple. After they defeated the fiends and reached the temple, they found the barrier already activated, trapping them. Then, 3 other Braves arrive (Chamot, Maura, and Hans) at the temple. All 7 of them stand and face each other, confused. There has always only been 6 Braves, never 7. They deduce one must be a fake, and their enemy.
5
"The Seventh Brave"
"Nana Ninme no Yūsha" (七人目の勇者) August 1, 2015
Adlet and Hans went outside to find an escape to the barrier, but unfortunately, they went in circles. When they went back, they saw Flamie cuffed and tied as the initial Seventh Brave, and the prime suspect of the activation of the barrier. Maura then suggested to introduce themselves in order to gather information about each other. During Flamie's introduction, she revealed herself as a half-human, half-fiend entity, born from a human father and a fiend mother. Adlet then explained his side of the story, but Hans saw a flaw in it like those 'locked room' mysteries, therefore making him the prime suspect.
6
"A Trap and a Rout"
"Wana to Kaisō" (罠と潰走) August 8, 2015
Adlet, in his confusion and anxiety, took Flamie as his hostage, poisoned her, and escaped the temple, but Hans threw a dagger on him to slow him down. He then passed out because of the blood loss while escaping. While he was down, he remembered how he went to his master, Atro Spiker, and begged to take him as his student. His first lesson was to smile in despair. As he regained his consciousness, he noticed that he had bandages, and Flamie patched him up. They both talked about their pasts, and as they open up to each other, he then speculated that there might be an Eighth Brave, and they needed to find that out.
7
"The Reason of the Two"
"Futari no Riyū" (二人の理由) August 15, 2015
Adlet talked about his past, on how he was taught to fight and even learn science by Atro Spiker, his master. He also talked about a lizard-like humanoid kyoma who had three wings who went to their village when he was young. Flamie then confirmed that it was the same fiend who convinced her mother to give birth to her. Because of this, his best friend and his sister died, leaving him behind. Flamie then told her story that her mother tried to kill her, making her furious of her kind, especially the Demon King. They then parted ways, and Flamie headed back. Inside the temple, the other Braves devised a plan to capture and kill Adlet. As the group divided themselves, Adlet went to the temple, but Hans was able to injure Adlet.
8
"The Average Man and the Genius"
"Bonjin to Tensai" (凡人と天才) August 22, 2015
Adlet was able to escape, but then engaged in a battle with Hans in the forest. Adlet is trying to convince Hans somehow, but Hans thought that it was not enough. As Adlet tried to trick Hans, he did not kill him to prove that he is not the impostor. Hans then told Adlet that he is the Seventh Brave, slicing his throat open. Adlet then realized that it was a hallucination, and Hans believed him as he saw his dying reaction. Meanwhile, Nachetanya speculated that Hans might be the Seventh Brave, and is asking Goldov for help. Adlet and Hans went back to the temple to find clues, but then Chamot was outside, and she attacked both of them by summoning fiends which were inside her.
9
"Blossoms of Doubt"
"Giwaku no Tsubomi" (疑惑の蕾) August 29, 2015
Adlet and Hans battled Chamot, but her fiends would always regenerate, making them hard to incapacitate. They then thought of incapacitating Chamot to stop the fiends. It was a success, and they captured Chamot. They asked her if she knows anything about the activation of the barrier, and she nodded no. Adlet went to search for more clues, and used the bomb that Flamie gave to give a signal to her. Flamie noticed and met each other. Adlet hypothesized about a saint's involvement on the matter and their possible uses, but Flamie rebuked them. Back at the temple, Hans told Maura and Chamot the same thing, but Maura refused to take them. Meanwhile, Nachetanya confirms with Goldov if someone died by checking her crest.
10
"Desperate Situation"
"Zettai Zetsumei" (絶体絶命) September 5, 2015
Adlet told her his hypothesis, and then confessed his feelings to Flamie, but it made her more doubtful, thinking that Adlet is deceiving her. Hans told Maura and Chamot the same thing, which made Maura call for Nachetanya and Goldov. She told them that Hans was killed by Adlet, making Nachetanya snap and furious. Flamie pursued the escaping Adlet, and made a signal to the others of their location. Maura caught up and the three engaged in a battle, but then Adlet surrendered and convinced Maura about Flamie's innocence so the others won't suspect her if he dies. Maura tried to kill Adlet, but Flamie was able to stop her. Adlet and Flamie escaped, but was cornered by Nachetanya and Goldov.
11
"Counter Attack"
"Hankō" (反攻) September 12, 2015
Adlet and Flamie were cornered by Maura, Nachetanya, and Goldov. Adlet tried to go back to the temple to meet with Hans while Flamie backed him up, but Maura and Goldov stopped Flamie, and Nachetanya pursued and incapacitated Adlet in the process. He felt the chills as Nachetanya gave the final blow, and blocked her weapon using his hands and kicked her to escape. Goldov followed him until they went back to the place where they fought the fiends near the temple. As Goldov, Nachetanya, Maura, and the captured Flamie got back together, Nachetanya was shocked to see Chamot with Hans, alive. She then apologized to Adlet for attacking him. Adlet finally made a conclusion as to how he/she might have done it. His theory involved the Sun Saint, Riura, being kidnapped, and was told to raise the temperature for over a week. As soon as one of the Braves opened the temple, they killed her, dropping the temperature, and a fiend ate her body. Hans was able to find the body, which then concludes as to who the Seventh Brave was.
12
"The Time to Reveal the Answer"
"Kaimei no Toki" (解明の時) September 19, 2015
Adlet confirmed that Maura might have been the Seventh Brave if his deductions were correct, but Chamot rebuked his conclusion. She and Hans were able to find copies of the tablet and tools that might have been used for the real activation of the barrier. On the second tablet were instructions to reactivate the fog barrier, which was by removing the knife and shattered tablet, drip blood all over the stand, recite the spell, and break the tablet. This made everyone think that the person who broke the tablet was the Seventh Brave. Flamie confirmed that it was Nachetanya, and everyone was surprised. By deduction, Adlet also thought that the person who sent him to the temple was the one who planned everything from the very beginning, and it was her. As he confirmed it, she then surrendered and claimed that she really is the Seventh Brave, and Goldov was shocked. Nachetanya told them that she wanted to kill them all because she believed that humans and fiends could live together in peace, but around 500,000 humans might die in the process. Adlet then ordered everyone to kill her, but she escaped. He fainted due to the loss of blood. As he regained consciousness, Maura apologized to him for not being able to know who the Seventh Brave was. She also took care of his wounds. After resting, they all went outside to go to the Demon King, but to their surprise, they met Rolonia, Adlet's childhood friend and the Saint of Blood, apologizing for being late because of the fog and claiming that she is one of the Braves. During the confusion, troops from Gwenbyer went to the temple to tell everyone that more than a thousand fiends would gather there to go back to the Land of the Howling Demons. They stopped thinking first as to who might be the Seventh Brave, and strategized to kill the Demon King.

Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) is a division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). OAR is also referred to as NOAA Research.
NOAA Research is the research and development arm of NOAA and is the driving force behind NOAA environmental products and services aimed at protecting life and property and promoting sustainable economic growth. Research, conducted by programs within NOAA and through collaborations outside NOAA, focuses on enhancing the understanding of environmental phenomena such as tornadoes, hurricanes, climate variability, changes in the ozone layer, El Niño/La Niña events, fisheries productivity, ocean currents, deep sea thermal vents, and coastal ecosystem health.
The origins of NOAA Research date back more than 200 years with the creation of the Survey of the Coast in 1807 by Thomas Jefferson. The Coast Survey, which became the U.S. Lake Survey office in 1841, was developed to undertake "a hydrographic survey of northwestern [Great] lakes." Research executed by the scientists of this group was innovative and holistic: the first current meters were developed to understand water flow rates, and forecasting techniques were greatly enhanced to predict water levels and the relationship to lakefront property. The same traits of world class, long-term research continue to define NOAA Research today.
The science and technology that NOAA Research produces is not only relevant to society, it anticipates and responds to partners’ needs to demonstrates the value of technologies so that partners can deploy them into their applications. OAR works with end-users to integrate mature technologies (and associated expertise) into larger systems, either in NOAA operations or partner applications, via testbeds, patents, etc.

Organization[edit]
NOAA Research is an open research network consisting of seven federal research laboratories, six program offices, sixteen Cooperative Institutes (which are non-federal, non-profit research institutions in 5-10 year collaborative partnerships with NOAA), and 33 university based Sea Grant programs. OAR also relies on work performed at numerous public, private, and academic institutions. Through its laboratories, programs, and external partners, OAR seeks to balance the activities that benefit from the long-term, dedicated capabilities of federal facilities with those that require the diverse expertise of our university partners.
The components and programs of NOAA Research are:
7 NOAA laboratories
16 Cooperative Institutes
NOAA Climate Program Office
Office of Weather and Air Quality
NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research
NOAA National Sea Grant Program
NOAA Unmanned Aircraft Systems
NOAA Ocean Acidification Program
What NOAA Research does[edit]
Working under the broad themes of Climate, Atmosphere, and Oceans, NOAA scientists study the ocean's depths and the highest reaches of space. NOAA's long-term commitment to conducting preeminent research includes engaging in-house and external talent to:
Continue to conduct experiments to understand natural processes (physical, geochemical, ecological)
Build predictive models for use in weather, climate, solar, ocean, and coastal assessments and predictions.
Develop and deploy new observing technologies to provide data to support predictive models and to document natural variability.
Develop new analytical and forecast tools to improve weather services and earlier warnings for natural disasters.
Use new information technology to share information with other federal and academic scientists.
Prepare scientific assessments and information products to enhance public education and guide governmental action.
Research plans and products are developed in partnership with academia and other federal agencies, and are peer-reviewed and widely distributed. A high premium is placed on external collaboration both domestically and internationally.
NOAA Research has three primary research areas: Climate, Weather and Air Chemistry, and Oceans, Coasts & the Great Lakes.
Climate Research[edit]
NOAA's research laboratories, the Climate Program Office, and research partners conduct research into complex climate systems and how they work. The aim of this research is to predict climate variation in the shorter term, for example, cold spells or periods of drought, and over longer terms, such as centuries and beyond.
NOAA scientists are at the forefront of studying climate change and modeling what the effects will be on the Earth. Researchers at NOAA’s Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) have developed the Coupled Hydrosphere-Atmosphere Research Model (CHARM) to enable a valid assessment of the impact of how climate change might affect the climate and ecology of the Great Lakes. The CHARM model provides a realistic surface-atmosphere feedback portrayal, and accounts for runoff from land surfaces. It allows researchers to predict that global warming likely will bring higher temperatures and increased precipitation to the Great Lakes. Development of a second generation of CHARM is underway to help answer questions about greenhouse warming effects on Great Lakes water quantity.
NOAA researchers closely monitor the Earth's atmosphere searching for clues about long-term changes in the global climate. The data collected worldwide by NOAA researchers contributes to the understanding of complex climatic systems and the ability to forecast changes.
Weather and Air Chemistry Research[edit]
NOAA Research organizations conduct research on the upper and lower atmosphere as well as the space environment. Their findings form the basis for NOAA's contributions to major national and international environmental programs and agreements.
For instance, improvements in forecast and warning services provided by the National Weather Service are a direct result of NOAA research. Improvements in numerical modeling, observations gathered by satellites and Doppler weather radars (NEXRAD), and sophisticated weather warning and information processing and communications systems, have collectively led to significantly improved severe weather forecasts and warnings.
Other research programs focus on observation and study of the chemical and physical processes of the atmosphere, detecting the effects of pollution on those processes and monitoring and forecasting the phenomena affecting the Sun-Earth environment.
Oceans, Coasts & the Great Lakes Research[edit]
NOAA Research, in cooperation with its research partners, explores and investigates ocean habitats and resources. The findings of NOAA researchers contribute to the management of fisheries, conservation of coastlines, and development of a stronger economy through marine products and businesses, such as biotechnology and sustainable aquaculture.
NOAA’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) in Seattle, Washington, designed Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis (DART-II) technology, which provides two-way communication capabilities, allowing engineers the ability to troubleshoot these systems from the lab and repair them remotely when possible. This capability minimizes system downtime, especially in the harsh winter conditions of the North Pacific, and reduces costs by not having to deploy a ship to make repairs.
Benefits of NOAA Research[edit]
Most environmental questions are not easily answered. NOAA is committed to tackling the complex issues that only advanced scientific knowledge can adequately address. NOAA Research seeks to:
Provide comprehensive knowledge to guide national environmental policy decisions, including better predictions of the climate response to emissions changes, choices for protection of the ozone layer, and alternatives for developing coastal communities;
Improve environmental services to the nation, including reliable predictions and assessments; and
Promote economic growth through science for decision-making, new technology, and partnerships with academia and industry.
NOAA Research laboratories[edit]
The 7 laboratories that are part of NOAA Research are located throughout the United States near their areas of focus.
Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) - Miami, FL
Air Resources Laboratory (ARL) - Silver Spring, MD
Earth System Research Laboratory (ESRL) - Boulder, CO
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) - Princeton, NJ
Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) - Ann Arbor, MI
National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) - Norman, OK
Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) - Seattle, WA and Newport, OR
The NOAA Research Laboratories conduct an integrated program of research, technology development, and services to improve the understanding of Earth's atmosphere, oceans and inland waters, and to describe and predict changes occurring to them. The laboratories and their field stations are located across the country and around the world.
The laboratories have established formal collaborative agreements with universities/non-profit research institutions to form joint research institutes that are centers of scientific excellence pertaining to the earth's oceans, inland waters, intermountain west, atmosphere, and arctic environment.
Scientific reviews are conducted every five years to evaluate the quality, relevance, and performance of research conducted at the OAR laboratories. These reviews help to strategically position laboratories in their planning of future science and are intended to ensure that OAR laboratory research is linked to the NOAA Next Generation Strategic Plan, remains relevant to the NOAA research mission and its priorities, and is consistent with NOAA planning, programming, and budgeting processes.
