A Brief History of Sudan(s)

The youngest country on earth is South Sudan. In 2011 they broke off from Sudan into their own country. However, the story of the youngest country has ancient roots, and many of us don’t really give this region the time of day. So, for this week, to advance the brief history series, let’s talk about Sudan, and its long LONG history.

There are still so many countries' stories to hear! Watch the whole playlist here:    • A Brief History of Ethiopia

Step Back is a history channel releasing videos weekly that endeavours to go past the names, dates, and battles you might find elsewhere. It invites you to take a step back, consider the past and how it connects to today. We search for the quirky, unconventional, and just plain weird parts of our collective story.
