Abstract

In 1863 the Sudan, which did not include the South and Darfur, was under Egyptian administration. Khedive Ismail of Egypt (ruled 1863–79) restored the centralized authority and appointed a Hakimdar (governor-general) at Khartoum. Caravan roads connected the Sudan with Egypt and Sawakin Port on the Red Sea. Exports included mainly gum arabic, ivory, ostrich feathers, etc.; manufactured goods such as textiles were imported.
