That's the regions on the border with Egypt, makes sense. And you're from kasala?
Well, the pyramids they went to are in central Sudan so not really close to Egypt. However, the pyramids bordering Egypt are slightly larger.
I was born in Kassala but moved to Port Sudan as a child and now I reside in Khartoum.
Ancient Sudan was more advanced than Egypt due to the smaller population and it was less reliant on slaves than ancient Egypt.The Sudanese are much more advanced and civilised than the Egyptians. I love the Sudanese, Sudan is a beautiful country, I wish to go there some day. Maybe But Sudan as well, swim in the red sea and all.
@Beja is it possible to take a ferry from But Sudan to Jeddah?
It was just a form of beauty back in the day. Men sometimes did it as well.OK. I've seen some Sudanese women with face cuts, what's the significance and what ethnicity/tribes practice it? I've seen the same marks on Afars in Djibouti and Ethiopia.
Yes you can, but most people go by plane since it's more convenient.I meant Jeddah, KSA, for hajj and umrah
Interesting video. Country looks like a hotter and drier version of Somalia, but with roads.
As usual comments section is overrun with racists and afrocentrists.
@Beja what region has all the pyramids?
They made a huge mistake ,though ,in letting those kneegrows secede with all the oil and lush green areas .I should visit Sudan one day. Seems like an interest place to go at least once.

It used to be Egypt, until all the feuds such as Egypt getting mad at Qatar for promoting tourism in Sudan amid Egypt's declining tourism, Sudan requiring visas for Egypt men aged 18-50 to prevent terrorism, and Sudan banned the import of Egyptian fruits, veggies in fish since they allegedly use "dirty water". Now it's gulf states and China. Ethiopia is close too but we have issues with Ethiopian government concerning land.Who are Sudan's main allies and what's it's economy relient on
I'm glad the oil is gone sooner rather than later. Better to be a diversified economy, especially since the fall of oil prices.They made a huge mistake ,though ,in letting those kneegrows secede with all the oil and lush green areas .

Sudan is mainly reliant on gold, cotton, arabic gum, edible oil, textiles, cement, etc.
I'm glad the oil is gone sooner rather than later. Better to be a diversified economy. The nuba mountains are still apart of Sudan.
