فى أمريكا: مدينة فى ولاية تكساس .. تسمى Sudan (توجد مناظر وصور)

Quote: History in a Pecan Shell Sudan was once a part of the 77 Ranch. The town itself dates to 1917 and was located on a branch line of the Santa Fe Railroad. The town's name is credited to the first postmaster, P. E. Boesen, but his reason for naming it remains a mystery. The post office was granted in 1918 when the town had fewer than 1920 inhabitants. The population ballooned to 600 in 1925 - the year the town incorporated and the first newspaper (The Sudan News) was published. The population high-water mark was 1,336 in 1950.
