About this paper
A Sir Adnan one-liner booklet headed 'SUDAN CIVIL WAR 2011-GK / ONE-LINER-200 (PPSC/FPSC NEW TREND 2025-26)' from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack (13 pp). This file publishes Q151-200 only, the FINAL part, completing the booklet (Q1-200 across four chunk files), in the standard MCQ format with verified answers and explanations: 38 published, 12 dropped, 1 correction. DROPPED as same-booklet duplicates, never re-extracted: Q155 (Red Sea Hills = Q113 in Q101-150), Q165 (Bayuda Desert = Q121), Q181 (Port Sudan main port = Q127), Q191 (Khartoum political capital = Q101), Q193 (Sahara dominating northern Sudan = Q105), Q195 (Darfur by Chad/CAR borders = Q168 in this chunk), Q197 (Nubia archaeological sites = Q146), Q198 (gold in eastern mountains = Q161 in this chunk). DROPPED as wrong or unanswerable as printed, never inferred: Q185 (neither 'Red Sea Hills' nor 'Butana' is a desert, so no standard desert answer is identifiable as printed), Q188 (no river forms Sudan's western border; the printed 'Moyenne/Sobat tributaries' answer is garbled - the Sobat is in the east), Q199 (no river connects the Blue Nile and the Atbara; both flow separately into the Nile, so 'Nile tributaries' is not an answer), Q200 (Red Sea along northeastern Sudan = Q118 in Q101-150). CORRECTION (standard answer, flagged in keyFlag, verified by web search): Q182 river separating Khartoum from Omdurman -> White Nile (booklet prints Blue Nile; the Blue Nile separates Khartoum from Khartoum North/Bahri). NOTE flags (5, in keyFlag): Q158 (Sahara spans both sides of the Sudan-Egypt border; 'Eastern Sahara' is the booklet's regional label), Q159 (the Sudd lies in South Sudan), Q177 (Fur are Darfur's largest group, not a minority within Darfur), Q196 (Gash is seasonal and dissipates near Kassala). This completes the Sudan booklet; its extracted PDF was removed from work/pms-screening/ after this run (master copy remains in the pack zip).
