Why do people live near the Nile in Sudan?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Because it provides water in an otherwise desert environment and the soil along the Nile is fertile for growing crops.

Before the invention of modern plumbing, it was necessary for people to live near a water source. As societies developed, they tended to stay near the original settlements. This is especially true in the harsh desert environment of Egypt. The Nile was also used for transportation, as it is easier to float a barge or boat than ride across sand dunes.

Why is London colder than Khartoum?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on the season. London, Ontario is located at a much more southerly point and is located more inside the continent which means that summers are hot and humid and winters are cold and snowy. Although London, England is more northerly, it has mild winters and warm to cool summers thanks to the moderating effect of the Atlantic ocean and the warm waters of the gulf stream coming from the Eastern Seaboard of the United States and Canada.

Are there any mountains in Sudan?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Morocco is the doorway to the Sahara, the largest desert in the world. As you look out onto the desert landscape, the cares and trappings of modern life drift away - fading into the soothing views of softly hued mountains and rolling dunes. The wonder of the Sahara can be enjoyed via a traditional camel ride or from the convenience of an all-terrain vehicle. As the sun begins to slip west, set up camp for an evening under the stars. An unspoiled night sky displays a sea of stars - clear and bright. The sweet and cool night air and the silence of the desert will lull you to sleep. Peaceful, like a celestial dream.

What is the largest problem preventing Sudan from taking advantage of recently discovered oil in the nation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In Sudan, continuing political conflict has gotten in the way of progress. Food shortages have occured due to civil war, the transportation and communication systems have seen little or no investment in recent years, a vast majority of settlement is rural, and secondary school enrollments are currently under 25% of school-age population. However, the fertile soil in Sudan can support more farming, and its new oil pipeline suggests that petroleum's role in Sudan's economy is expanding. But still, the country's sustained economic development appears delayed by continuing political instability.
