I think Bin Laden was expelled by his home country Saudi Arabia, who I suspect hold sway over the other Arab nations, who were probably weary of him. But he managed to make a base in Sudan that is until American military pressure forced him out. Afghanistan was, after that probably one of his only options, it's a multi-ethnic country more susceptible to radicals promoting a unifying identity namely Islam [my own unresearched theory] The Taliban, made up largely of Pashtun tribesman the Afghan ethnic majority were already established in the country. Also Bin Laden fought against the Russians in the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan so he'd have kudos from that. That transition happened in 1996, I think he remained there until the fallout of the September 11th attacks which he conducted from his base in Afghanistan. Then he was smuggled into a complex in Pakistan until his death by American special forces in 2011. I think that covers the reason's for him choosing Afghanistan broadly.

The newly formed state of South Sudan is found to the south of Sudan. Previously Sudan was a single country - see related questions
The answer is Sudan. This may not help much, but Sudan in Arabic is السودان (Al-Sudan, pronounced As-Sudan) and the word which is literally "the Blacks" but doesn't have quite the same history is السود (Al-Sud/As-Sud)

I concur, as part of my job I spent many years in Sudan, and the district of Khartoum. known as Syracuse is also known locally as Syra Syra. Assuming you mean Osama Bin Laden, it's often assumed that up until recently his 'lair' was the Tora Bora region of mountains near Kandahar or, more accurately, a series of purpose built caves beneath them. However his presence here has never been proven sufficiently. His last known whereabouts, proven beyond any reasonable doubt, was in Sudan from 1992 to around 1995 (when it is believed he fled back to Afghanistan). It is well known that whilst in Sudan he based himself in Khartoum. However the city is dissected into a series of independent districts and administrative areas based upon ethnic and religious backgrounds. Osama stayed very much within the Syra Syra (pronounced See-ra, See-ra) area of Khartoum, so if anywhere could be described as his last known 'lair' I'd say it was Syra Syra.

No country, to be exact, attacked the US on September 11, 2001. No one, at first wanted to take the credit. However, Osama Bin Laden and the terrorist/political/religious group Al Qaeda he is said to have been affiliated with are now credited with the attack. The countries that harbored the terrorists were primarily Pakistan and Afghanistan, but they were not at fault in the escape of the terrorists from the United States soldiers. They have not found them because of the intense mountainous terrain and vast social network that Osama Bin Laden maintains.The September 11th attacks, which occurred in 2001, were perpetrated by the al'Qaeda. They are active in Iraq, Sudan, and Pakistan.Osama bin Laden, leader of the al'Qaeda, is generally blamed for ordering the attacks.
