Abstract: 

The Republic of the Sudan, born on January 1st, 1956, is, like many other independent states in Africa, a political, and not an ethnic unit. It ranks high among the countries with extraordinary ethnic and cultural diversity. Besides the Arab tribes which constitute 39% of its population, there are numerous non-Arab tribes of several racial and linguistic families.
