During the fifth millennium BC, migrations from the drying Sahara brought neolithic people into the Nile Valley along with agriculture. The population that resulted from this cultural and genetic mixing developed a social hierarchy over the next centuries which became the <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Kerma" class="mw-redirect" title="Kingdom of Kerma">Kingdom of Kerma</a> at 2500 BC. Anthropological and archaeological research indicates that during the predynastic period Nubia and Nagadan Upper Egypt were ethnically and culturally nearly identical, and thus, simultaneously evolved systems of pharaonic kingship by 3300 BC.<a href="#cite_note-Keita,_S.O.Y._1993_129–54-47">[43]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Kerma_culture_(2500–1500_BC)">Kerma culture (2500–1500 BC)</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Sudan&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Kerma culture (2500–1500 BC)">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Kerma_culture" title="Kerma culture">Kerma culture</a></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1237032888/mw-parser-output/.tmulti">.mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner{display:flex;flex-direction:column}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{display:flex;flex-direction:row;clear:left;flex-wrap:wrap;width:100%;box-sizing:border-box}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{margin:1px;float:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .theader{clear:both;font-weight:bold;text-align:center;align-self:center;background-color:transparent;width:100%}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbcaption{background-color:transparent}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-left{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-right{text-align:right}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-center{text-align:center}@media all and (max-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbinner{width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;max-width:none!important;align-items:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{justify-content:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{float:none!important;max-width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle .thumbcaption{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow>.thumbcaption{text-align:center}}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}</style><div class="thumb tmulti tright"><div class="thumbinner multiimageinner" style="width:342px;max-width:342px"><div class="trow"><div class="theader">Kerma culture (c.2500 BC–c.1550 BC)</div></div><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:151px;max-width:151px"><div class="thumbimage" style="height:130px;overflow:hidden"><a href="/wiki/File:Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dc/Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg/149px-Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg" decoding="async" width="149" height="130" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dc/Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg/224px-Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dc/Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg/298px-Wallpaper_group-pmg-4.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1894" data-file-height="1650" /></a></div><div class="thumbcaption text-align-center">Kerma bowl, 1700-1550 BC. <a href="/wiki/Museum_of_Fine_Arts,_Boston" title="Museum of Fine Arts, Boston">Museum of Fine Arts, Boston</a></div></div><div class="tsingle" style="width:187px;max-width:187px"><div class="thumbimage" style="height:130px;overflow:hidden"><a href="/wiki/File:Exposition_Nubia,_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period,_1700-1550_BC.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0b/Exposition_Nubia%2C_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period%2C_1700-1550_BC.jpg/185px-Exposition_Nubia%2C_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period%2C_1700-1550_BC.jpg" decoding="async" width="185" height="131" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0b/Exposition_Nubia%2C_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period%2C_1700-1550_BC.jpg/278px-Exposition_Nubia%2C_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period%2C_1700-1550_BC.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0b/Exposition_Nubia%2C_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period%2C_1700-1550_BC.jpg/370px-Exposition_Nubia%2C_Land_of_the_Black_Pharaohs_%E2%80%93_Mirror._Kerma_Period%2C_1700-1550_BC.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5804" data-file-height="4097" /></a></div><div class="thumbcaption text-align-center">Mirror.

From his announcement of the Mahdiyya in June 1881 until the <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Khartoum" title="Siege of Khartoum">fall of Khartoum</a> in January 1885, Muhammad Ahmad led a <a href="/wiki/Mahdist_War" title="Mahdist War">successful military campaign</a> against the Turco-Egyptian government of the Sudan, known as the <a href="/wiki/Turkiyah" class="mw-redirect" title="Turkiyah">Turkiyah</a>.

Abd ar-Rahman an-Nujumi, the Khalifa's general, attempted an invasion of Egypt in 1889, but British-led Egyptian troops defeated the Ansar at Tushkah. The failure of the Egyptian invasion broke the spell of the Ansar's invincibility.

In the 1890s, the British sought to re-establish their control over Sudan, once more officially in the name of the Egyptian Khedive, but in actuality treating the country as a British colony. By the early 1890s, British, French, and Belgian claims had converged at the <a href="/wiki/Nile" title="Nile">Nile</a> headwaters.

The former educational ladder 6 + 3 + 3 was changed in 1990. The primary language at all levels is Arabic. Schools are concentrated in urban areas; many in the west have been damaged or destroyed by years of civil war. In 2001 the World Bank estimated that primary enrollment was 46 percent of eligible pupils and 21 percent of secondary students. Enrollment varies widely, falling below 20 percent in some provinces.
