You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Politics of Sudan))

In typical elections, [[Sudan]] elects on a national level [[head of state]] – the [[President (government title)|president]] – and a [[legislature]]. In the election of 2010, there were two presidential elections, one for the Presidency of the Republic of Sudan and one for the Presidency of the Government of Southern Sudan. Elections for the [[Unicameralism|unicameral]], 360-member National Assembly were last held in [[2015 Sudanese general election|April 2015]].

The [[National Legislature of Sudan|National Legislature]] whose members were chosen in mid-2005 had [[Bicameralism|two chambers]]. The [[National Assembly of Sudan|National Assembly]] (''Majlis Watani'') consisted of 450 appointed members who represented the government, former rebels, and other opposition political parties. The [[Council of States of Sudan|Council of States]] (''Majlis Welayat'') had 50 members who were indirectly elected by state legislatures. All members of the National Legislature served six-year terms.

In the early twenty-first century, Sudan was a [[dominant-party state]] with the [[National Congress (Sudan)|National Congress]] in power. [[Opposition (politics)|Opposition]] [[political parties|parties]] were allowed, but were widely considered to have no real chance of gaining power.

On 11 April 2019, Sudan was taken over by a [[Transitional Military Council (2019)|military junta]] after the [[Sudanese Armed Forces|military]] seized power from the President in a [[2019 Sudanese coup d'état|coup]]. Federal elections were tentatively scheduled for [[2022 Sudanese general election|2022]] under the [[2019 Sudanese transition to democracy]] deal.<ref name="Vox_TMC_FFC_deal" />

== History ==
[[Sudan]] has had national level elections since 1948 while it was still an [[History of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan|Anglo–Egyptian colony]]. Independence from or union with Egypt was a major electoral platform in the 1948 election.<ref name="Spectator_1948Sudan_election" />

Following the [[Comprehensive Peace Agreement]], elections initially did not play a role in determining the composition of the interim national government, the South Sudan government, or the state legislatures.<ref name=":0">((citation-attribution|1=((Cite encyclopedia|last=Shinn|first=David H.|title=Elections|editor-last=Berry|editor1-first=LaVerle|url=https://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/cs/pdf/CS_Sudan.pdf|encyclopedia=Sudan : a country study|date=2015|publisher=[[Federal Research Division]], [[Library of Congress]]|isbn=978-0-8444-0750-0|edition=5th|location=Washington, D.C.|pages=232–234))))</ref> An out of date national census and, in the case of South Sudan, a complete lack of infrastructure for conducting an election, rendered the electoral process moot.<ref name=":0" /> As a result, all government officials and all governing bodies consisted of appointed officials until the completion of a census in 2008 and national elections in 2010.<ref name=":0" /> The SPLM rejected the results of the census, claiming that it underestimated populations in the South.<ref name=":0" /> The National Elections Act of 2008 provided the legal framework for conducting elections in Sudan, South Sudan, and in each state.<ref name=":0" /> The National Elections Commission was responsible for developing the regulations, rules, and orders for the election of the national president, South Sudan president, state governors, National Assembly, South Sudan Legislative Assembly, and state assemblies.<ref name=":0" />
