Possible definitions for darfur
Darfur
Historical region and former province, W Sudan. It was an independent kingdom from c.2500 BC. Its first traditional rulers, the Daju, probably traded with ancient Egypt; they were succeeded by the Tunjur. Darfur's Christian period, which lasted c.900-1200, was ended by the advance of Islam with the empire of Kanem-Bornu. In the 1870s Darfur came under Egyptian rule, and in 1916 it became a province of Sudan.
