France would own territory to the north of this line, and Great Britain would own territory to the south of it. The Nile Basin would be British, with the French taking the basin of the River Chad . Furthermore, between the 11th and 15th degrees Longitude , the border would pass between Ouaddaï , which would be French, and Darfour in Sudan , to be British.
