[sqceeipn] Make the Bir Tawil triangle interesting

Could Egypt or Sudan or private parties play up the "no man's  land" aspect of the Bir Tawil triangle for financial gain?  ("Ever wanted to live where no country owns you?  Go here.")

Build some toll roads, maybe even rail, to the border.  Make some money off of "Last chance depots" selling supplies to settlers (and likely warlords, as we see in anarchic Somalia).

Of course, the current occupants (Egyptian ranchers?) would probably be upset.
