Colour map on a 1/4.8M scale, 47x62cm, unbound. Near fine, folded into 6. No publisher or author is indicated, but CIA. Sudan had broken diplomatic relations with the US and declared war on Israel after the outbreak of the Six Day War in June 1967. Dated 4-69, this map was produced in the lead up to the Sudanese Coup of 25 May 1969 that brought Colonel Gaafar Nimeiry to power. Nimeiry, an Arab Nationalist and Socialist who allied closely with Nasser and Gaddafi, sought to end the First Sudanese Civil War (1955-72), and would declare regional autonomy for southern Sudan on 9 June 1969. The map uses colour coding and lettering to show the locations of Sudan's tribes distinguishing Arab, Beja, Nubian, and Negroid, the latter further divided into Nilotic, Nuba, Sudanic, and Other. Also shown are water features, international and provincial boundaries and capitals. Very rare with 3 locations on Worldcat (LoC, University of Georgia, Stanford). OCLC 5446918. Not on Library Hub. Also included is another uncredited CIA colour map of Sudan, 1/12.5M, 21x27cm (13834.1 1-56) showing political and administrative boundaries. These kinds of maps were produced to provide supporting information in internal US Government briefings. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 5437
