The Khartoum government has been in the hands of Muslim fundamentalists for most of the past century. Islamic law is strictly applied throughout the country, even to foreigners and non-Muslim citizens. As a result, Sudan is effectively isolated from much of the world, although it does significant business with other Muslim countries. It is a full member of the Islamic Caliphate, and is notable as the most stringently fundamentalist and anti-Western member of that alliance.
