The Mahdist War, also known as the Anglo-Sudan War or the Sudanese Mahdist Revolt, was a significant conflict that took place in Sudan during the late 19th century. This war marked a pivotal moment in British imperial history and had far-reaching consequences for both Sudan and the wider region. One of the key battles of this war was the Battle of Omdurman, which occurred on September 2nd, 1898. A map from Field Marshal Lord Kitchener's book "His Life and Work for the Empire" published in 1916 depicts this battle. The map shows two crucial attacks: one at 6:45 a. m. , followed by another by Khalifas at 9:40 a. m. This battle resulted in a decisive victory for British and Egyptian forces over the Mahdists. Another important engagement during this conflict was the Battle of Atbara, illustrated on another map from Lord Kitchener's book. Taking place during the Second Sudan War, it played a vital role in weakening Mahdist resistance. The map provides an overview of this battle fought in 1898. To understand how these battles fit into the overall rebellion against colonial rule, we can refer to another map depicting the rebellion in Sudan back in 1884. It showcases various regions affected by unrest during that time period. Additionally, there is a plan illustrating details about specific battles like Tamai. Dated back to the 19th century, it offers insights into military strategies employed during these conflicts. Furthermore, maps showcasing Khartoum and its surroundings provide context for understanding events such as sieges that occurred throughout this war-torn period. One such siege happened at Khartoum itself in 1884 when General Gordon famously fell victim to Mahdist forces. These visual resources are complemented by lithographs capturing different aspects of warfare during this era - from rocket detachments at the Battle of Atbara to the Soudan advance.
