Turco-Egyptian Sudan (Arabic: التركى المصرى السودان), also known as Turkiyya (Arabic: التركية, at-Turkiyyah) or Turkish Sudan, describes the rule of the Eyalet and later Khedivate of Egypt over what is now Sudan and South Sudan. It lasted from 1820, when Muhammad Ali Pasha started his conquest of Sudan, to the fall of Khartoum in 1885 to Muhammad Ahmad, the self-proclaimed Mahdi.^[1][2]
