Bir Tawil, or the Bir Tawil triangle is a quadrilateral piece of land that neither Egypt nor Sudan wants because it would mean giving up the more fertile oil rich land called Hala'ib. An 1899 treaty says Bir Tawil is the property of Sudan and that Hala'ib is the property of Egypt. However, a 1902 treaty gives Hala'ib to Sudan and Bir Tawil to Egypt. Both countries want Hala'ib and neither want Bir Tawil because it would mean giving up the more fertile oil rich land of Hala'ib. Bir Tawil is mostly a desert. It's a land that belongs to no country. You can start a new country there. Some people have made flags and put it on Bir Tawil. Some people made online claims. But no one has lived there to start a kingdom or government with their own laws and currency and research chemical and pharmaceutical companies and supplement plant growers and food and water. There's probably sometimes a few nomads passing by.

Tawil, can you text me the homework?
Yea, I'll send it on Outlook right now on my Apple TV with my Apple Pencil controlling the Apple TV Remote on my Apple Watch.
Bir Tawil refers to an unclaimed place north of Sudan (between Egypt and Sudan). Some call it North Sudan, but it has not become official yet.
"Bir Tawil" is used as "Empty" as in "You are so empty." Or "Useless" as in "You are so useless." Both definitions are used equally much.
