The Copts returned to Sudan once more after the Anglo-Egyptian troops conquered the Mahdist State (1885 - 1898). Some of those who converted to Islam returned to Christianity, but some could not, in view of the complications The Sudanese Coptic community is a small but prominent minority (150-200,000) who have lived in Sudan for more than one hundred years who are served by twenty three churches and two bishops.
