Anglo-Egyptian Sudan (Arabic: السودان الإنجليزي المصري, romanised: as-Sūdān al-Inglīzī al-Maṣrī) was a condominium of Britain and Egypt from 1899 to 1956, covering present-day Sudan and South Sudan. Sudan was governed de facto by British officials under a governor-general resident in Khartoum. The condominium followed the Anglo-Egyptian conquest of Sudan, which overthrew the Mahdist State in 1898. Under the agreement of January 1899, the Egyptian khedive appointed the governor-general on British recommendation and could dismiss him only with British consent. During World War I, the administration annexed Darfur after the defeat of Ali Dinar in 1916. Following the assassination of Governor-General Lee Stack in Cairo in 1924, Britain ordered Egyptian troops and officials to leave Sudan, curtailing their influence. The government expanded railways and communications, developed Port Sudan, and introduced irrigated cotton cultivation through the Gezira Scheme. Investment was concentrated in Khartoum and the Blue Nile province, while cotton became the main export. British district commissioners of the Sudan Political Service increasingly governed through local chiefs under native administration. The three southern provinces were administered separately. In 1946, the government reversed its southern policy and began integrating the northern and southern administrations. Sudanese nationalists opposed British rule but disagreed over independence or union with Egypt. After the Egyptian revolution of 1952, Egypt accepted Sudanese self-determination. On 12 February 1953, Britain and Egypt signed an agreement providing for self-government followed by a decision on Sudan's future. A Sudanese government led by Ismail al-Azhari took office in January 1954. Southern resistance to northern administrative and military control contributed to the Torit mutiny in August 1955. Parliament unanimously declared independence on 19 December 1955, and Sudan became an independent republic on 1 January 1956.
