The kingdom of Kush was located south of Egypt in present-day Sudan, and Axum was farther south in Ethiopia. The Kush kingdom ruled Egypt from around 727 BC to 653 BC. (see the related map link)
The Kingdom of Axum was generally larger in land area compared to the Kingdom of Kush. At its height, Axum covered parts of present-day Ethiopia and Eritrea, extending its influence into the Arabian Peninsula. In contrast, Kush was primarily located in what is now Sudan, encompassing a smaller geographical area. While both kingdoms were significant in their own right, Axum's territorial expanse surpassed that of Kush.
