Sudan

Life in Sudan is not easy. Many people live in poverty, and violence and war are facts of life. However, the people of this nation still hold tightly to their cultural identity and traditions. Readers explore the many factors that contribute to that cultural identity as they examine focused chapters detailing Sudan's history, economy, geography, arts, and more. Each chapter is enhanced with photographs, sidebars, and fact boxes that foster a deeper appreciation of one of the many cultures of the world. In addition, recipes invite readers to get creative, and maps support the development of important curricular skills.
