Sudan's population before the 1600's?

Question

i need to know the population major religion and major food production before the 1600's

Answer 1

All I know: Sudan is all muslim. Influenced by Muslim traders in North Africa.

Some reference from wiki:
" Islam was introduced in 640 AD with an influx of Muslim Arabs who had conquered Egypt, although the Christian Kingdoms of Nubia managed to persist until the 15th Century."

All I know: Food production required the work of a lot of people. And, the farms were relying on rains and faced intermittent droughts.

Wiki says: Agriculture production remains Sudan's most important sector, employing 80% of the work force and contributing 39% of GDP, but most farms remain rain-fed and susceptible to drought. (from 2003)

Hope it helps. Couldn't get much for food production, though.

Answer 2

All religions are old in Sudan. Before 1600, there are pagans, christians and moslems. They are all living together. I think that was the status.
