Also,

I wonder what kind of "Arabs" these are......are these "Sudanese" Arabs, meaning people of an Arabized culture, or are they Arabs as we sterotypically perceive Arabs to be..........Salaam.

P.S.-I wonder what the Sudanese government thinks of this situation........lol. Salaam

^^^ Niger is in west Africa by the way and not Sudan, so why would the Sudanese Arabs even care?

I think the Niger Arabs look similar to the Tuareg of Niger and Mali as they most likely intermarried.


If they are kicked out of Niger, then they are welcome in Somalia, where a new Islamic revolution has just started!

The Arabs in Niger and other areas as far as Cameroon are actually Shuwa Arabs from the Sudan. When bedouin Arabs migrated to Sudan they intermarried with the local Nilotic people so much that lost their original apperance. Shuwas are more related to southern Sudanese than Tuaregs both in phenotype and culture.

Tuaregs don't really intermarry much outside heir circle and especially not with Arabs.
