The Sudan is a landmass in the northern part of Africa. The Red Sea forms most of the country's western border, but inland plains and mountain ranges are also present. Many people visit the region to learn about its culture or find work in the oil industry because of the striking contrast with the United States. Sudan is a major supplier of oil to China and many other countries.
When going to the U.S. for residency or an extended stay, having a vehicle shipped to will only help a person to travel more freely. There won't be any need to call for public transportation or deal with the country's various language barriers. Ultimately, one will be avoiding a lot of stress and saving money. Sudan has many paved and unpaved roadways that are continuously being improved since waterways used to be the main form of transport throughout the country.
