Sudan is Africa's largest country, almost 918,000 square miles in size. Military conflicts and disputes with its neighbors have damaged its domestic strengths. Today's population exceeds 35 million. The capital city is Khartoum, the currency is the Sudanese Dinar and the official language is Arabic.

The climate varies from desert conditions in the north to tropical in the south. Cotton, sesame, and sugar production is concentrated in close proximity to the Nile River, and its many tributaries. Tourism is almost non-existent. Severe famine is not unknown and the country depends on foreign food aid.
