Differences Of Colonialism In Sudan

In this film, there are countless historical accuracies. The first is the accurate portrayal of the climate and geography of the Sudan. The Sudan is depicted as an extremely hot and dry desert where the people live in mud houses in rural communities (Large, "Sudan"). There is scarce water, and no urban cities, as the country has not yet industrialized (Large, "Sudan"). The rainfall does not usually surpass four inches annually, and the average temperature is around one hundred and ten degrees Fahrenheit as well (Large, "Sudan"). Another historical accuracy is the background on the Mahdi people and their goals during the rebellion. A Muslim named Muhammad Ahmad claimed that he was the Mahdi, an Islamic messiah (Axelrod and Phillips, "Sudanese War"). He spearheaded the war, known as

Even though the North and the South origins were both from Europe, their customs and living habits were different. The North and the South began to notice these differences as they broke away from Britain in the Revolutionary War. The North and South emerged into two different regions, due to their various differences. These differences included the geography, the economy, the social and classification status, and transportation.

The Hyksos invaded and occupied Egypt from the 15th - 17th dynasties known as the second intermediate period, before their eventual defeat by the Egyptians which started the 18th dynasty.

When reading "The Difference of Race" I found it particularly interesting that the South would go as far as to consider themselves a different race from the North. The article specifies why they most likely decided to do this, “As Jared Gardner has accurately observed, “growing regional divisions between North and South prompted metaphors of race to describe distinctions that were regional, political, economic—anything but racial” (Watson, 11). I find it interesting that this group of people based such importance on race that they felt they needed to be made into their own singular race to look better than not only the negro but also the North. It seems that this indicates that they not only wanted the importance and authority they had over colored people but they needed to also expand that control over the Northern people by trying to create their own race and then assert that it was already better than the other existing races. It was insightful to see that the South was this concerned about the way they were viewed and that they were in a position of power and prestige.

British colonialism ended in Sudan in 1956 and from that point on there would be significant conflict within the state, one of the main causes was because of differences in religious beliefs. The North, and most of the state were predominantly Muslim while the South was Christian and a mix of other religions. After a long civil war, which ended in 2005, Sudan was divided and the new state of South Sudan was created in 2011; it is the UN’s newest member. This was deemed a major accomplishment; not only were the South Sudanese celebrating but the Americans and the UN were as well since it was believed that this would finally bring peace.

Well according to Freedom House , a website that accurately rates country’s human rights and freedom on a 1-7 scale, Sudan’s ratings are the worst possible. Their human rights is a 7/7, 1 is the best 7 is the worst, their civil liberties is 7, and their overall freedom is a 7. When your country is overall awful in human rights something needs to change. Freedom, political rights, and civil liberties are the difference between an underdeveloped and a developing country. Sudan, obviously, is underdeveloped. When Britain left Sudan, Sudan was lost. They had so many decisions to make and paths to choose. When a developed country has control of an underdeveloped country the developed country should at least try to help the underdeveloped country to become somewhat developed. Britain, the parent, left Sudan, their kid, on the side of the road and drove

Algeria, which is taken up mostly by the Sahara desert, was apart of the Ottoman Empire lead by Hussein Dey until France launched war due to a disagreement between a French consul and their leader. And also because of their desire to expand their empire. They seized Algiers in 1830 and came to have an intense impact on the area and its populations. Quickly France took control over the coastal communities, Dey went into exile and the Algerians were resistant up until about the 1840s and by 1847 Algeria was made a department of France.

Comparison: After the failed invasion of the Hyksos around 1500 B.C.E, how did the Egyptian people change the Old Kingdom to the more improved the Old Kingdom?

Islam was useful to many Sudanic Kings. Having contact with muslims provided many benefits to the Sudanic kings. They hired arabs to keep records which helped developed bureaucracy which helped establish and expand the state. They also benefited from trade with the Islamic North. Through trade they were able to gain horses that allowed them to build up their military. They also benefited having them as allies in case of invasion. They also adapted arabic writing and a legal system through their connections with Islam.

The Egyptians passed from being under the power of Heraclius, the Byzantine’s emperor, to be under the power of Umar ibn Al-Khattab, the Caliph of the Muslims. Since that moment, Islam ruled the zone, but through the years, the things started changing. In the Muslim-ruled world in 640’s, there was not yet a fight for the control of Islam, being just one Caliph: Umar ibn Al-Khattab. This Caliph was known to care about the wellbeing of the poor’s and underprivilege people. During his reign, the Muslim territory encompassed 13 provinces: Mecca, Medina, Basra, Kufa, Jazira, Syria, Aylya, Ramlah, Upper Egypt, Lower Egypt, Khorasan, Azerbaijan and Fars; now known as the territories of Arabia, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Egypt and Iran. Those territories were under the control of Rashidum Caliphate, represented by Umar. It was a democratic system, because Muslims chose the Caliphs based on their morality and their relationship with Ala. On the other side, on the 1000’s, the

Next, a member of the Nile Project who was born in Libya, raised in Egypt, but considers himself Eritrean, spoke about his experiences. He described how his identity had always been complex, spanning from his youth. His mother, an Egyptian, and his father, Eritrean, always conversed on the idea of “mixing,” even though at that time Egypt did not allow those who did not have a father from Egypt to be considered an Egyptian citizen, and so he was basically left without a homeland. This influenced his ideas of identity and how complex and complicated it could be. He also claimed that as a child growing up in Egypt, he was extremely uninformed even of the countries bordering Egypt, much less the countries upstream. He remembers being told by the government that Ethiopia, who was at the time building the biggest hydroelectric dam in the Nile, was the enemy, and although he was vaguely familiar with Sudan, that information was limited, too.

In the 1890’s, Sudan was invaded by Britain. The British took control over the Sudan and obtained power over Sudan. After this had occurred, most of the Sudanese government was controlled by the British. In 1953, the British signed an agreement that allowed Sudan self-governance. Sudan was colonized by two different countries.

Sudan was well known for its diversity in language, religion, and background. People in northern Sudan are mostly Muslims of Arab descent, while people in southern Sudan follow Christianity and tribal religions and are of African descent. Thus, “Sudan’s population is divided by ethnic, linguistic, and religious differences.” The government was primarily composed of northern Sudanese, who had lots of power and control over the country’s matters. Southern Sudanese, on the other hand, had little say in the government and their autonomy and rights were harshly limited. This led to the first civil war between the Sudanese government and the SPLA, or the Sudan People’s

Sudan, also known as North Sudan and officially the Republic of the Sudan, is a country in northeastern Africa. It is bordered by Egypt to the north, the Red Sea, Eritrea, and Ethiopia to the east, and South Sudan to the south. Sudan was founded in Jan 01, 1956 with a population of 40.23 million since 2015, Sudan also, declared independence on July 9th, 2011. Since 1998, Sudan has been in a severe famine partially caused by the two year drought that occurred before the famine, however this horrific event is mainly due to the countries governments and their self-seeking interests. With the help of the international aid, the breach to end severe starvation worldwide has somewhat moved forward but, the conditions are still critical. The question
