Sarraounia is the name given to an African queen who reigned over the Azna, a West African community, at the end of the 19th century, in the south-west of present-day Niger. "Sarraounia" (also spelled sarauniya or saraouniya) is not a name, but a title - "queen", in the Hausa language - given to the political and religious leader of the village of Lougou (or Lugu), located about twenty kilometers from Matankari. According to the few elements we have about it, the sarraounia of Lougou would have been called Mangu (or Mangou).

She is remembered for the resistance that her community put up against the Voulet-Chanoine mission; at a time when many West African kingdoms were capitulating without a fight to the French, the community of Sarraounia gave battle to the colonial troops commanded by Captains Voulet and Chanoine, in April 1899.

A little-known character, Sarraounia experienced a new posterity from the 1980s, where she was reinvented and mythologized in the guise of an African heroine, even a symbol of Pan-Africanism.
