Abstract:The Dinka are the largest ethnic group in the Sudan. Estimated to number about two million, with over 20 sub-tribes, they are now found in four of the six southern provinces. In the Norther Sudan, they inhabit some parts of southern Kordofan. The Dinka fought for the Sudan they then knew, and that was tribal territory. What the Dinka nationalists and indeed all the Southern Sudanese who resisted the Anglo-Egyptian administration did was a miniature of what political parties eventually achieved for the nation as a whole. Appendix: Translations of some Dinka political songs which emphasize the effect of the Nuer colonial factor on Dinka resistance to the Condominium administration.
