In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the inner workings of the Mahdist State, the short-lived but transformative theocracy that ruled Sudan from 1885 to 1898. They discuss how the Mahdi, Muhammad Ahmad, built a revolutionary government from scratch, with a blend of Islamic law and charismatic leadership. Key figures like the Khalifa Abdullahi, the Ansar army, and the notorious jihadiyya slave soldiers are examined. Listeners learn about the state's economy, its reliance on tribute and plunder, and its clashes with Ethiopian forces. The episode also covers the Mahdist postal system, coinage with Quranic verses, and the controversial decision to impose a strict dress code. A nuanced look at Sudan's first independent state in centuries, its achievements, and its contradictions. #MahdistState #Sudan #KhalifaAbdullahi #Mahdi #Omdurman #Ansar #Jihadiyya #Baqqara #EthiopianWar #IslamicTheocracy #19thCentury #NorthAfrica #Colonialism #Revolution #Slavery #History #FexingoHistory #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
