Sudan is a country located in North-East Africa. It is the third largest country on the continent by area, and is bordered by Egypt to the north, the Red Sea to the northeast, Eritrea and Ethiopia to the east, South Sudan to the south, the Central African Republic to the southwest, Chad to the west, and Libya to the northwest.
Sudan has a diverse population of over 40 million people, with a rich cultural heritage that includes Arab, African, and Nubian influences. The country has a long and complex history, with ancient kingdoms such as Kush and Nubia flourishing in the region.
Sudan gained independence from British and Egyptian colonial rule in 1956, but has since experienced periods of conflict and instability, including a civil war between the North and South that lasted for decades before South Sudan seceded in 2011.
The capital city of Sudan is Khartoum, which is also the largest city in the country. Sudan’s economy is primarily based on agriculture, with crops such as sorghum, millet, and wheat being grown for domestic consumption. The country also has significant natural resources, including oil, minerals, and hydroelectric potential.
