Шаблон:Pp Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox settlementШаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang-arz, Шаблон:IPA-arz) is a Шаблон:Convert area of land along the border between Egypt and Sudan, which is uninhabited and claimed by neither country. When spoken of in association with the neighbouring Halaib Triangle, it is sometimes referred to as the Шаблон:Lang Triangle, despite the area's quadrilateral shape; the two regions border at a quadripoint.
Its unclaimed status results from a discrepancy between the straight political boundary between Egypt and Sudan established in 1899, and the irregular administrative boundary established in 1902. Egypt asserts the political boundary, and Sudan asserts the administrative boundary, with the result that the Шаблон:Lang Triangle is claimed by both and Шаблон:Lang by neither. In 2014, author Alastair Bonnett described Шаблон:Lang as the only place on Earth that was habitable but was not claimed by any recognised government.[1]
History
On 19 January 1899, an agreement between the United Kingdom and Egypt relating to the administration of Sudan defined "Soudan" as the "territories south of the 22nd parallel of latitude".[2] It contained a provision that would give Egypt control of the Red Sea port of Шаблон:Lang, but an amendment on 10 July 1899 gave Suakin to Sudan instead.[2]
On 4 November 1902, the UK drew a separate "administrative boundary", intended to reflect the actual use of the land by the tribes in the region.[2] Шаблон:Lang was grazing land used by the Шаблон:Lang tribe based near Шаблон:Lang, and thus was placed under Egyptian administration from Cairo. Similarly, the Шаблон:Lang Triangle to the northeast was placed under the British governor of Sudan, because its inhabitants were culturally closer to Khartoum.
Egypt claims the original border from 1899, the 22nd parallel, which would place the Шаблон:Lang Triangle within Egypt and the Шаблон:Lang area within Sudan. Sudan, however, claims the administrative border of 1902, which would put Шаблон:Lang within Sudan, and Шаблон:Lang within Egypt. As a result, both states claim Шаблон:Lang and neither claims the much less valuable Шаблон:Lang area, which is only a tenth the size, and has no permanent settlements or access to the sea. There is no basis in international law for either Sudan or Egypt to claim both territories, and neither nation is willing to cede Шаблон:Lang. With no third state claiming the neglected area, Шаблон:Lang is one of the few land areas of the world not claimed by any recognised state.[3][4]
Geography
Шаблон:Lang is Шаблон:Convert in size. The length of its northern and southern borders are Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert respectively; the length of its eastern and western borders are Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert respectively. In the north of the area is the mountain Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang), with a height of Шаблон:Convert. In the east is Шаблон:Lang, with a height of Шаблон:Convert. In the south is the Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang), also called Шаблон:Lang. There is no surface water in Bir Tawil.[5]
Climate
Шаблон:Lang's climate is, according to the Köppen climate classification, a very hot desert climate (Bwh). For approximately three-quarters of the year the temperature can exceed Шаблон:Convert, and in the three hottest months (June–August) it can be as high as Шаблон:Convert. During the winters (December and January being its mildest months), Шаблон:Lang can have lower temperatures, with Шаблон:Convert as its usual temperature peak.
Because the territory is far from the ocean (being at least Шаблон:Cvt away from the Red Sea), the diurnal temperature range throughout the region is large, about Шаблон:Convert year-round.[6]
Claims
Due to its status as Шаблон:Lang unclaimed territory, a number of individuals and organizations have attempted to claim Шаблон:Lang as a micronation; because of the remoteness and hostile climate of the region, the vast majority of these claims have been by declarations posted online from other locations. None of these claims, or any others, have been recognized, officially or otherwise, by any government or international organization.[7][8]Шаблон:Clear left
Population
Bir Tawil has no settled population, but members of the Ababda and Bishari tribes pass through the region,[7] and unregulated mining camps have been established throughout the territory in search of gold deposits.[9][10]
