The Shilluk, who prefer to be known as Chollo, are a major Nilotic ethnic group of southern Sudan, living on both banks of the river Nile, in the vicinity of the city of Malakal. The most extensive Chollo area is located on the western bank of the Nile north from Malakal. Before the second Sudanese civil war the Chollo also lived in a number of settlements on the northern bank of the Sobat river. The Shilluk are the third largest minority ethnic group of southern Sudan.
