Headlines its struggle over the nile now. The naleo. The worlds longest river. A 7000 kilometers a lifeline for almost 400000000 people. Flowing north the nile runs through 10 countries. The highlands in the heart of africa. The shores of the mediterranean sea. A source of sustenance but also one of tension even potential conflict. These tensions between countries along the river nile have their roots in the 19th century. Colonial decisions of the past. Are a point of bitter dispute today. And new political realities on the ground are increasing the sense of uncertainty over who owns the river nile. In september 2005 a team of explorers set off on a unique journey up the nile river. To. The strike in the its right state at the mouth of the not were about to begin the longest revenue. In the world. Led by new zealand adventurer a chemical a team aimed at being the 1st expedition to travel up the nile to its furthest source. The 1st stage of the trek through egypt and Northern Sudan proved a breeze. But then the explorers encountered the sued the Worlds Largest swamp. In fatherhood and into this massive swampy area of 1000 kilometers long and 300 kilometers wide is now held shes my jury he just did live and water its absolutely incredible. The sued means obstacles in arabic and it has proved just that a labyrinth of waterways that has hindered hospital but asians. Macleans team managed to navigate their way out of the swamp. After 90 days of travel overcoming tremendous obstacles they eventually arrived in rwanda. At a tiny spring which they determined to be the southernmost source of the nile. Its. Illegal.

Just a few kilometers away from the clays business stands this list a monument to a past mile adventurer john manning speak. Speak was a british explorer who arrived here almost 150 years earlier 1862 he came in search of the answer to an age old question where is the source of the nile. The Royal Geographical Society in london was established in 1830. It houses the maps navigation tools and personal belongings of famous explorers from the 19th century. Men who were in the grip of a romantic obsession to discover the source of the nile. For europeans the exploration of the mile is probably the biggest goal drives their enterprise in 1000 century because its seen as the largest the most important river and also because there is this long heritage or History Associated with it. Rather than trying to cross the sued area in southern sudan explorers in the mid 1900. Another passage via the island of zanzibar. During the 19th century zanzibar was an arab kingdom controlling the trade route from india into africa as interior. These. There are traders facilitate european exploration its the year of the the arab traders for example who began 1st to report that there are great lakes already great like in the interior of east africa. Based on this information the Royal Geographical Society sponsored expeditions into the heart of africa. In 857 using zanzibar as a starting point john hanning speak cross to east africa and ventured into the hinterland where he found a huge lake he believed to be the source of the nile. 3 years later on a new expedition he travelled around this lake today known as Lake Victoria to discover the nile flowing out from its no them side. A roll call of famous explorers ventured into the continents interior to build on speaks discovery. Men such as samuel baker David Livingston and Henry Morton Stanley helped complete the picture about the true source of the nile. Back home they were lauded as heroes with monuments built on of them but others saw them differently it was mistakenly called to discover that you know most of the books in the past use it speak to discover the knife as if you was a fust he might have been through the night when he was a fussy european to see this as of the night but then with the discovered its because he was even so and this is some of the native by the africa does yes. The Royal Geographical Society helped push the boundaries of exploration and empire. But this age of exploration is seen by many as a precursor of colonize ation. Moment in is most of these people were explorers but Intelligence Services in their own countries made use of their experiences for them that. They were not only british but also belgians and french. Theyve served the people and the situation in these areas if. They then pass this information on for colonize ation and has. Armed with greater information the age of exploration began the scramble for africa. The continent was up for grabs. To divide the spoils european nations convened at the berlin conference in 884. 00 where they sliced up the african continent interests fears of influence. Britain had formally occupied egypt 2 years earlier in 882 to control the suez canal the strategic route to india the jewel in the crown of the british empire. In berlin it was decided the nile basin region would fall under british rule. When the british to control you knighted to their very soon realized that they had become rudeness of a society that were totally dependent on the nile so they understood from the very beginning that the Economic Development the political stability to depend upon my control. To assert control upstream the british established what it called the east africa protectorate in 1905 comprising what is today kenya and uganda. The next step was sudan a territory ruled by egypt since 820. With their domination in egypt the british persuaded the egyptians to sign an agreement in january 899. 00 for joining rule of a sedan. In reality joint rule was a fig leaf for british command. Here in the president ial palace in khartoum to this day a museum houses portrayed of former governors of sudan. The paintings are testament to a time of british dominion. In our world in fact the british master the art of ruling sudan they completely sidelined the egyptians. The governor general was british the commander of the army was british and so were all the high ranking officials in the administration. Controlling the Great Lakes Region source of the white nile the british mix turned their attention to ensuring hedge many over the blue nile the rivers of a source originating in the ethiopian highlands. In may 1902 the british signed an agreement with emperor men like the 2nd of ethiopia in which he promised not to build any dam that might affect the flow of the blue nile to egypt. Feeling they had secured the full length of the nile britains Decision Makers in london began to put in place the next phase of their master plan economic gain. From quite early on the british also decided to transform egypt into the cotton farm of the textile industries and that gets here in the. British reliance on egyptian cotton began to increase. To boost the harvest the british set out to revolutionize egypts irrigation system a system dating back thousands of years. They gave a oddity to the vote countries denied countries their old engineers what the plan is remain down from the colonials service and teed. Experienced guys give them a lot of plans not a Political Freedom so that they really can take the nile in hand. The british came up with the idea for a dam in southern egypt to hold back the nile flood and use its waters for irrigation. Construction on the ass when low dam began in 181009. It was officially opened 3 years later at the time it was the largest stone dam of its kind ever built. Britain wanted to ensure the full flow with the nile reached egypt to maximize cotton production. No one else upstream was allowed to siphon off any of the river. For have some strict orders were laid down to god in the use of the nile water because the british were concerned about egypt money. For example they banned sudanese farmers from the using of water pumps unless they obtained permission from the egyptian irrigation authority. And. Britain discriminated in favor of egypts claim over the nile. The british expected the egyptians to be thankful but they were to have a rude awakening. In 1919 following the end of the 1st world war the egyptians revolted against British Occupation and demanded complete independence. They were led by a fiery nationalist called saad zabulon. With such sentiment on the rise. The british looked for a way to cower the egyptians into submission. The river nile egypts lifeline was an effective political weapon and the british had in mind a Perfect Place to use this weapon. The get 0 region in sudan between the blue nile and the white nile was an area with the potential to become the largest cotton growing region in the world. That to france to motives or to main strategic and is that they can see us again or wrong to increase the cut. Production in sudan for the benefit of the british takes a long history secondly this huge need is not really in control of the now its really through saddam and his who has the power and. The bit it has a power in saddam. British attempts to intimidate the egyptians only further inflamed nationalist sentiment. A crisis point was reached when in november 1924 so least stack commander in chief of the Egyptian Army and governor of sudan was assassinated while driving through the streets of cairo. The assassins were arrested and sentenced to death. But the murder of the british official was a turning point london now found its reason to implement the good cirrus scheme. What they did was that ok you killed the governor general then the will take more work from the nile as a punishment so this was the 1st time in practice abstinence power punished the empower you dude. With a vote with. Britains trump card was this an odd dam completed 1925. Built on the blue nile in sudan it would help the irrigation of the gezi or area. But it also delivered an ominous signal to the egyptians for the 1st time in their history a dam built outside of egypt but affect the flow of the nile into their country. Nationalists however continued to mobilize Popular Support against the British Occupation. Cooler heads in london began to realize that relations with egypt were deteriorating fast. Something which could threaten british control over the suez canal. As before the river nile became a useful Political Tool this time for compromise rather than coercion. In maine 129 notes were exchanged between the british high commissioner in egypt george lloyd and the egyptian Prime MinisterMohammad Mahmoud pasha. This diplomacy led to a landmark agreement in which britain awarded egypt exclusive control over the full course of the nile waters from egypts point of view the night 29 agreement also calls. And the tree. Because here the british said that well and now is in a definitive it more or less and it has a with a right to stop its upstream if they dont want it. By signing the 929. 00 agreement with the british so to coopt the egyptians. No such consideration was given to the Indigenous Peoples upstream who were not consulted even though the river originated in their lands. By the early 1930 s. Britain was becoming increasingly concerned with a growing menace closer to home. At the end of world war 2 in 1945 britain was no longer the mighty empire that could claim control of a large parts of the world such as the nile basin. After the 2nd world war britain came out of the will that brits economy came out very much a device that it and the u. S. Is now the king of the world. The United States stepped forward to assert itself more boldly on the world stage in places formally controlled by the old then piles. In 1953 u. S. Secretary of state John Foster Dulles became the 1st time ranking american official to visit cairo. Dulles offered Financial Support for the construction of a massive new dam on the nile in southern egypt. But 3 years later the offer was withdrawn. The americans had become suspicious of egyptian president Jamal Abdul Nasser as nonalignment policy. At the same time the withdrawal of the offer provided an opportunity to undermine british influence john 1000. 00 and the American Government that understood quite clearly that one way or crushing the influence of the british imperialists in this area was to make them powerless when it comes to the now question became clear that everybody. That was of the americans decide it and the bridge had to just fall off as said prior to. Despite the withdrawal of Financial Support for the construction of the ass one high dam nasa chose to push ahead. In july 956 nationalize the Suez Canal Company to provide funding for the project. The takeover stun british and french shareholders in the swiss company. The british still ruling parts of east africa had a secret planned retaliation. The plan would involve using the enfolds dam in uganda to cut off the flow with the nile upstream in an attempt to force nasa to give up the suez canal. The scheme was never adopted since the ensuing drought would take too long to have its effect on egypt. Britain wanted more immediate action so they reverted to a more obvious method boots on the ground. In 1956 britain and france with israeli collusion invaded egypt in a bid to seize back the canal. And. The americans publicly distance themselves from the aggression. By the states but not consulted in any way about any phase of these actions nor were we informed them in advance. It is our only intent just matter will be brought before the United NationsGeneral Assembly there with no veto operating the opinion of the world can be brought to bear in our quest for a just didnt do this tormenting. The United Nations declared a ceasefire. So as crisis ended with a humiliating with drool of the invasion forces from egypt it was to prove a seminal moment in modern history. The sun was setting on the british empire. Colonialism was on the decline. In africa nations began to gain their independence among them nile upstream countries. The winds of change were blowing creating new states and new demands for a share of the waters of the nile. Of all my friends and coworkers who were detained i am the only one who survived they were all waiting for news of the men for clues only one word on their lips almost a saw a boy killed in his fathers.

Khartoum capital of sudan. The Meeting Point of the white nile from the Great Lakes Region and the blue nile from the ethiopian highlands. To. Peter. Hamby is a resident of tutti island where the 2 niles converge. He explains to his son the difference in the color of the waters. The white nile on the left and the blue nile on the right and how they join here to form one river flowing northwards to egypt. Means many the most beautiful thing distinguishing us from the rest of the world is the mine. There is no other river like it its a great river heavily and the life around it is unique. In this small truck each day hamdi delivers vegetables across the river to the market on the amount of. Oil. And the. Idea of the nile they take visible that girl here to the market how would i live otherwise and liberals way even with i will be buried by the lie when. Sudans road to independence started in the middle of the 20th century. In 1953 britain and egypt joint rulers of a sedan for more than 50 years signed an agreement giving the sudanese people the right to selfdetermination. 2 years later in 1955 the Sudanese Parliament unanimously adopted a declaration of independence rather than unifying with egypt into a single country. On january the 1st 956 the sudanese flag was raised for the 1st time in khartoum. The largest country in africa was born a country flowing 60 percent of the entire nile basin area. Sudan had enormous agricultural potential but there was a drawback. The 1929 anglo egyptian agreement allotted only 4000000000 cubic meters of nile waters to the sudanese territory. Compared to egypts 48000000000 cubic meters. The newly independent sudanese were not happy inheriting this colonial legacy. And that this agreement reinforced gyptian dominance all. Over the nile he made any and gave who done just a token amount of. What was writing stuff in the future half most sudanese believe that the knowledge agreements were unjustly sent and that distribution of the water should have been based on the size of the country isin the south. Sudan share should have been much more than what was agreed upon because its fall larger heavier you think. The 929 agreement had also given egypt the right to monitor the nile flow beyond the egyptian territory. As quote a well im understanding i remember when i was a young engineer. I moved to the city not my roommate was an egyptian engineer this was and his sole job but the check the amount of water so then took from the night and to ensure that so then didnt take with it during the drought these were your ideas but in the end. Keen to assert its newly won sovereignty the Sudanese Government declared it was no longer bound by the 1929 agreement. By 958 relations between sudan and egypt had to tear erected. So dans foreign minister traveled to cairo for urgent meetings. The 2 peoples had often described themselves as brothers of the nile valley but now there was a growing rift. But dramatic events in khartoum brought a sudden end to tensions in november 1958 the Sudanese Army staged a coup detat overthrowing the government. General Ibrahim Abood took the reins of power. Looking back on events some see the hand the venue gyptian president Jamal Abdul Nasser behind the coup. General abdul nasser like a military coup and it. And Lieutenant General abboud was close to the egyptian regime. A year after the coup a sudanese delegation arrived in cairo to sign a new nile agreement. The 959 full utilization of nile waters agreement allocated a new share of the river ahead of the completion of the ass one high down in egypt. Once constructed the dam was due to save over 30000000000 cubic meters of floodwater annually. Egypt share of the nile increased by several 1000000000 cubic meters sudans limited share more than quadruple. The 1959 agreement between egypt and sudan consolidated a renewed alliance. Most of us will that egypt and so then form a joint committee wants a bill for monitoring that if that in the 2 countries looked at that and increasing its water flow was the ad that allowed. One way to increase the nile waters was to resurrect a plan dating back to British Colonial times. Over 20000000000 cubic meters of the nile waters carried downstream from the Great Lakes Region a last buyback a ration in the huge swamp area of southern sudan known as the suit. The plan was to dig a canal diverting the nile to bypass this area reducing the water loss. It was cooled the jungle a canal. There was one problem. Sudan was far from stable. The nation had been born with a dangerous fault line between a predominantly arab and muslim north and a mainly christian and animist south. And. Chief demi and is a village leader on the outskirts of juba the capital of southern sudan. He remembers the mood of secession in the south during the early 1950 s. We wanted to point out because we were use by arabs in the government and we want to give it. Get it but at night i thought what did it mentally im not going to im as good as ive got i. Am going to have a gun. In all this 955 the 1st sudanese civil war erupted between north and south. Fighting raged for 17 years. Eventually a peace accord was signed in 1972 in addis ababa. The end of fighting meant that plans for the jungle a canal in southern sudan could now be brought back off the shelf. Egyptian president anwar sadat and his sudanese counterpart just mary did exactly this and in 1978 work started on the 360 kilometer canal. But the southern sudanese viewed the project with suspicion. The main tribes of the region such as the new heir and dinka made a living by grazing their cattle across the suit. The jungle a canal threatened to dry up significant parts of this wetland. From the start it proved harmful for the tribes and their livestock. I know that when they dont look and i would be open i would still a young man and we saw the stock in the stock up kept on coming from the east going to deny to bring water and they just went in and they perished because of the big. Bank and that was. Opened because of those machines. A campaign against the jungle a canal project gained momentum reaching far and wide. With me who will be homeless i was the dumbly can and was met with a hostile campaign to give you what you know yeah but i was minister of education and i received letters from japan from environmentalists asking me why we would want to dry the wetlands in southern sudan and create a desert with the flicks hardly a letter from someone in japan who wasnt even living here and had no rights to this food harmless our what it was part of the campaign of negativity aimed at creating instability in our area. By the early 1980 s. The project almost 2 thirds complete had become the focus for suspicion and wild rumors. Well there was politics and you know politicians can create they can create stories to frighten people one of them was that probably there were a lot of a distance coming to stop the marker on the canal. That was not true but of course in the absence of proper information anything could be billy. Relations between the north and the south began to deteriorate once again. In 1983 a group of southern sudanese soldiers mutiny refusing to obey orders from the northern commanders. An officer by the name of john garang joined the mutiny is. He led them into the bush to start a Guerrilla Movement which came to be known as the Sudan Peoples Liberation Army the s. P. L. A. Yeah. Theres sudans people Liberation Army was not against the junger canal perfect as such turned out on the leader its been a written his p. H. D. Thesis by the way on the donek now his problem was not the person himself but his complaint was the sudden sit down. Also needs water and it is not just been satisfied a little bit. The project provided one of the very 1st targets for the s. P. L. A at the beginning of sudan 2nd civil war between the north and the south and. The canals giant excavator lays in the spot where it dug its last hole a rusting destroyed rink. Where the fighting lasted for 22 years. 2000000 people died and 4000000 cambric eugenes. Just after a series of talks the Peace Agreement ending the civil war was signed in january 2005 in ny vashon kenya changed. The accord stipulated a referendum to be held throughout southern sudan on independence by january 2011. The referendum resulted in southern secession. A new country was born. And a new question arose. Would the new country abide by previous water agreements allocating a share of the nile flood. Even before the announcement of the referendum result the opinion from the south was clear. We must advise of those agreements. Because saddam didnt become a different state then these must be divisive those items wouldnt you know dont they. Loaded in that i get. A new nile basin country in africa rejecting that the liberty of old agreements. A new nation looking to secure its own share of the rivers waters something similar has happened before. In the 1960 s. With european colonial powers declining a number of african nations gained their independence among them upstream states on the river nile. Soon after they announced they would not abide by the 1929 anglo egyptian 9 agreement which had given egypt exclusive control of the river. Article 14 d. Of 1000 internet agreement he states very clearly that most states sound be able to utilize the nile river what us or that he was feeding them aids or the lakes wheat fields that he went in without the approval of the dance of they give him a government that alone gives veto to egypt i bet the party and states. The 2 agreements from the previous century from 9291959 lie at the heart of todays struggle over the nile. Egypt and sedan on one side see the agreements as historical legacy is to be maintained. When i close some of the lot of so we must uphold agreements and treaties the holdup was that this is a logic that applies to National Borders to me and hold them no you cant just change the borders of african countries because their demarcation had been rectified in preindependence treaties their manner let you and so you can just demand new stipulations in the agreements especially since this is a crucial case 3 into our livelihood then i want out of such a case egypt doesnt have any other. Water source. On the other side upstream countries see the past agreements as colonial relics and demand their own rights to a share of the nile waters. We are aware that the argument on the usage of the native what. Were saying that were back in the tank. And since then i notice things have happened and therefore there was a need to review the alchemy itself and how the countries. Through which the nail growth can benefit the temple. In an effort to resolve the growing dispute in 1999 the ministers of Water Resources from all the nile basin countries met here in Dar Es Salaam tanzania. The socalled Nile Basin Initiative was launched aimed at promoting joint projects and reaching a new agreement over the sharing of the nile. But the mood of camaraderie at the initial meetings soon changed and would then work in the kenneth. Id like it to be known that the relationship between us and them wasnt that amicable that we said they believed we were taking all of the water and that they were getting nothing among the charges when there were less than 4 when we went for meetings in those countries they would say you are taking our water to have my up at the ok i dont want to say it was a hostile atmosphere but it certainly wasnt friendly for in. The upstream countries accused egypt of digging in its heels by refusing to consider relinquishing the agreements from the previous century. Negotiations continued over 10 years. Attitudes hardened. Positions became ever more entrenched. The egyptians saw their share of the river flow as both negligible and nonnegotiable. Ignited the near the amount of rainfall in the entire nile basin area is 1. 00 trillion cubic meters of ahead of but what arrives downstream is 84000000000 cubic meters only which means less than 5 percent is a fuck so where does the difference go its wasted in evaporation and swamps in forests and it does not use an upstream country. Either therefore we should put aside the small quantity which is less than 5 percent leave it aside and focus on building joint projects between the nile basin countries this will save part of the last water then we can divide it in a fair way between the 10 base and countries. Hold and i felt. The upstream countries rejected egyptian arguments. Ethiopia was one of the countries which after years of being caught up in internal strife and tragedy was now pushing more forcefully for a greater share of the nile. When the whole is a not here to be negotiated because this is a visit on. The nature and it is agreed what are going in or that is not negotiated in any International Argument and thats why it is a demanding the nih what are the when or what was the reason it instead of telling is it is a matter of this office and enough not one of the sort is that. The responsible for every. People. Things reached a head in may 2010 at a meeting in entebbe uganda when 4 upstream nations signed a new agreement nullifying older ones and setting out policies for a more. Dibble share of the nile. To this date 6 countries are signatories ethiopia uganda rwanda tanzania kenya and burundi. Egypt and sudan were absent having refused to even attend the meeting. There was a mood of celebration among those who signed the socalled mile quarter Framework Agreement and want to regulate ourselves but i think. Its far. Better to. Even. Make sure that all. The signatories believe egypt and sudan will have to come on board at some point and sign a new agreement all the time they walk out but they still come back because there is no in the souls that they can be able to use and what we have been telling them the only simple way he spoke christian. Nations sure enough a few weeks later in june 2010 the egyptians return to the negotiating table. It was a bitter pill for them to swallow. However they have yet to sign the entebbe agreement. For the egyptians at least for the time being facts on the ground are more important than the signing of any a cool must of. Egypt and certain neutral parties believe that we dont need to sign any agreement at the present time that had that there is no need for a Framework Agreement for the foreseeable future wouldnt we believe what is important is what is happening on the ground especially the fact that there are no big dam projects at the present time that may affect egyptian interest. But the status quo is unlikely to hold. African upstream nations are increasingly demanding a larger share of the nile waters. Such demands are raising fears downstream. Fears stoked up by a history of suspicion and rivalry. Fears about countries not only on the nile but even beyond the great river itself.
