well its the same as in any country. not all Arabs are Muslim and not all Muslims are Arab's!

"Arab" is a term used to describe people of Arabian decent, where as Muslim is the name given to a person who follows the religion and teachings of Islam. The two are not necessarily the same.

In Sudan there are a number of different ethnic backgrounds and a number of religions, Islam, Christian, Coptic and even Jewish
