Shambat (city)

Shambat is a city located in Sudan, situated north of Khartoum. It forms part of the Khartoum North area, often considered part of the larger Khartoum conurbation. Historically and geographically, Shambat has played a significant role due to its proximity to the Nile River and its position within the broader region's agricultural and economic landscape. The city has experienced growth and development alongside the expansion of the Sudanese capital region. While not as widely known internationally as Khartoum itself, Shambat is an important urban center within the country, with a local economy primarily driven by agriculture, trade, and services related to the greater Khartoum metropolitan area.
