These peoples had given way to pastoralists and probably agriculturalists at least by the fourth millennium B.C. Sudan’s subsequent culture and history have largely revolved around relations to the north with Egypt and to the south with tropical Africa, the Nile River forming a “bridge” through the Sahara Desert between the two.

    Andrea Behrends: Neither nomads versus settlers nor ethnic conflicts - The long history of changing alliances and politicized groups on the Chad/Sudan border. in: Richard Rottenburg (Hg.): Nomadic-sedentary relations and failing state institutions in Darfur and Kordofan (Sudan). Halle 2008 (Orientwissenschaftliche Hefte 26; Mitteilungen des SFB „Differenz und Integration“ 12) 25–70. © Andrea Behrends 2008 Neither nomads versus settlers nor ethnic conflicts − The long history of changing alliances and politicized groups on the Chad/Sudan border Andrea Behrends1 Abstract The border region between Chad and Sudan affects and is affected by a wide in- ternational field, from neighboring Sudan and Libya, to Egypt, France, and the United States. As of March 2007, the war in Sudan’s western Darfur region on the border with Chad has been raging for more than four years with over 200,000 Sudanese citizens living in Chadian refugee camps and more than two million displaced in Darfur. This article discusses the often proclaimed notion of the con- flict being rooted either in recurrent disputes between nomads and settlers or in ethnic racism between so-called ‘Arabs’ and ‘Black Africans’. Instead of following these notions, a historical pattern of allying and re-allying border groups is brought forward. This pattern will be shown to have been instrumentalized by different actors, aggravating the conflict and causing yet unprecedented forms of ‘tribal hatred’ in the region. The paper begins by giving an account of different voices concerning the relations between nomads and settlers in Darfur and the wider border region. It will, then, attempt to disentangle the complex historical connections as well as the intertwined relations between the present governments of Chad, Sudan, and others, in order to develop a frame for understanding the actors’ perspectives in recent violent developments in the border region.

  • Language and Ethnic Groups in Sudan
    EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. VIII, Issue 6/ September 2020 Impact Factor: 3.4546 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org Language and Ethnic Groups in Sudan AMIR KHABIR SATTI HAMED Assistant Professor Elnaser Technical College Omdurman Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research Republic of Sudan Abstract This study aims at investigating language and ethnic groups in the Sudan. In this study the researcher has made a review of historical background of the Sudan and its people. The Sudan is a multilingual country. It has more than 300 local vernacular languages. It has a diversity of cultures. The Sudan has more than 300 indigenous tribes. They are Afro- Arabian Nilo- Saharan tribes and black African tribes. But Arabic language is the National Language and the language of education. There are the Nilo-Saharan tribes in the North of the Sudan within the blank of the Nile. In the East of the Sudan mainly in the Red Sea State, there are the tribes of: Beni Amer, Hadndawa, Amharinga, and Tigrai. Each of these tribes has its own local language. Then we have the Blue Nile State and the Nuba mountain tribes. Each of these tribes has its own local language. And we have North State Kordofan and South Kordofan State. The later is inhabited by many ethnic groups tribes. Each of these tribes has its own language. Thus we have the greater Darfur States. Each of these state has many ethnic groups. Each of these groups has its own language. Hence the case study of this paper is language and ethnic groups in the Sudan.

  • Conflict of National Identity in Sudan
    CONFLICT OF NATIONAL IDENTITY IN SUDAN Kuel Maluil Jok Academic Dissertation to be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki, in auditorium XII, on 31 March 2012 at 10 o‟clock. University of Helsinki, Department of World Cultures Kuel Jok Conflict of National Identity in Sudan Copyright © Kuel Jok 2012 ISBN 978-952-10-7919-1 (Print) ISBN 978-952-10-7891-0 (PDF) UNIGRAFIA Helsinki University Print Helsinki 2012 ii ABSTRACT This study addresses the contemporary conflict of national identity in Sudan between the adherents of „Islamic nationalism‟ and „customary secularism‟. The former urge the adoption of a national constitution that derives its civil and criminal laws from Sharia (Islamic law) and Arabic be the language of instruction in national institutions of Sudan. The group argues that the intertwined model of the Islamic-Arab cultural identity accelerates assimilation of the heterogeneous African ethnic and religious diversities in Sudan into a homogeneous national identity defining Sudan as an Islamic-Arab state. The latter demand the adoption of secular laws, which must be derived from the diverse set of customary laws and equal opportunities for all African languages beside Arabic and English. The group claims that the adoption of the Islamic laws and Arabic legalises the treatment of the citizens in the country in terms of religion and race and that implies racism and discrimination. In this way, the adherents of the Islamic nationalism imposed the Islamic-Arab model. In reaction, the Muslims and the non-Muslim secularists resort to violence as an alternative model of resistance.

The Fur tribe homeland is divided amongst three Fur divisions, speaking six traditional dialects, and is located in the center and western border of Darfur. These dialects and traditions are quickly being erased by the assimilation Darfurians face by being forced to migrate across Sudan, often into eastern Chad, leaving behind their native culture.
