Sudan: Al-Zubayr Rahma Mansur or Rahama Zobeir Pasha (1831-1913) with his horse and a retainer.

Al-Zubayr Rahma Mansur (Arabic: ?????? ???? ??????) was a Sudanese Arab slave trader in the late 19th-century. He later became a pasha and Sudanese governor. His reputation as a nemesis of General Charles Gordon meant he was bestowed a near-mythic status in England, where he was referred to as 'the richest and worst', a 'Slaver King' 'who [had] chained lions as part of his escort'.
