The Cham is a wide boulevard in central Ankh-Morpork, which in former days of Empire, monarchy, and glory was used for ceremonial parades and triumphant marches by armies who had just added a little piece of the Disc to the Empire.

Today, it separates Sator Square from the Plaza of Broken Moons and was strategically vital location in Thud!. The Watch had to erect barricades here, to prevent Trolls massing in the Plaza from re-enacting Koom Valley with Dwarfs massing in the square. Success for the Watch was greatly assisted by the surreptitious administration of Fluff to the dwarfs and luglarr to the trolls.
