To all African. Africa have a lot of resources. If you can put aside all of difference between tribes and religions, you can turn Africa into a very wealthy continent.
Jin Chuong Africa is the most ethnically diverse continent in the planet. The borders for the countries were drawn on a map by Europeans who cares very little for the ethnic make up of the continent. Europe went through two world wars and the forced migration of millions of Germans to find peace, yet we expect the people of Africa to be different.
Jin Chuong too much outside intervention and greed, Ethiopias monarchy was overthrown, Ethiopia did really really well as a monarchy but because of greed and the soviets I don't think our empire will ever be restored to its glory and might

Probably not. In Rwanda nearly a million people were killed in acts of ethnic cleansing within the first 100 days of the purely sectarian 1994 conflict. This is way different. The South Sudanese civil wars been going on for four years now. Although lots of people have died, this is in a political conflict with sectarian undertones. Plus as of last year the situation was winding down with only an estimated 3000 or so people dying of it in 2015. Ever since 1994 people have been worried about genocide (rightly so). But this doesn't have the potential like Rwanda did.

3:31 VP guy "I might run against you in the next election" President: "can't run against me in the next election if there ain't another election" *starts a civil war again*
There is no geographical divide between the 2 ethnic group as South Sudan (and Sudan) are very diverse. (This would require mass migration and mobilization for the biggest 2 group). Also the other 40+ groups may start a domino effect all aiming for an independent State. We (the world) did to them as we did to Palestine-Israel in 1948.
gökçe arslan they also probably fight over land because of resources. If enemy territory has resources you want, then youre gonna want to fight them for it
I'm a high school student in the International Baccalaureate diploma program, which is an international curriculum that ignores local curriculums. While all my generally educated friends are learning about Abraham Lincoln, we're learning about how HORRENDOUS the Rwandan Genocide was. The biggest thing that disgusted me was the complacency of the international community and the media's lack of interest. I'm so glad that channels like Vox are here to get the word out about these rising conflicts, people underestimate just how powerful the right media coverage can be in a situation as dire as this.
They forgot to mention that the root cause of the first conflict between the north and the south was originally established by the British colonialism, they basically enforced segregation system via closed zones preventing travel and trade between north and south for a long period of time causing a sense of detachment which ignited social divide and race issues.
Theoniix They need to get it together. India split into pakistan and india to seperate religion. Ethnicity was able to hold themselves together making it diverse. South sudan could do the same

***** Oh idk, Culture, Religion, Capitalism, ethnic differences, Resources? How does one just skip to "Human Nature" over all the material conditions on the earth? Think about all the humans who have ever participated in wars (fighting in them). Lets just assume that is 1 Billion (even though its probably not even close), that still leaves 19 Billion Humans who've never engaged in violent wars. Think about all the violent warlords and criminals whove ever existed in the world, then think about how many people are not violent criminals. Yes there are millions of violent, hateful, abusive, and selfish people, but there are billions of people who are not like that. A few bad apples DON'T Spoil the bunch. The majority of humanity is good.

Once a trouble maker, always a trouble maker. The south sudan started the chaos at the beginning. After they gained independent, they are fighting each other. It's the people.
This is incredibly sad but I really feel that if a country decides to intervene or not, they'll be criticised. It's not a decision to take lightly and must be done right.
It's a similar to the story of India and Pakistan... both of them got independent with the genocide of Hindus and sikhs. .. Pakistan again got divided to form Bangladesh... genocide of Bengali Muslims and Hindus... Pakistan could have shattered again but they kept fighting wars against India which kinda boosts their national integrity... otherwise there will be no Pakistan
David Rodriguez I think there is nothing which holds South Sudan together... e.g. war against Sudan kept them together...same is with Pakistan..their hatred against India keeps them together
I like how you mention genocide of Hindus during separation of pak and ind while COMPLETELY ignoring deaths of Sikhs and Muslims as well. Everyone suffered.
Razy Ahmed I m sorry if I forgot to mention Sikhs, I will edit it...but in case of Muslims I don't think it was a genocide...it was Mohammed Ali Jinnah who declared direct action against Hindus and Sikhs...lakhs of Hindus and Sikhs were raped, killed, robbed in Muslim majority areas...contrary to that...in India, Gandhi and other Congress leaders were continuously trying to calm down the people including Muslims...the fact is Congress was trying to represent whole country as one...but Muslim league was just working for Muslims...that's the difference... and that's why Pakistan is way behind India in all areas....rightly said ...one country reached to Mars...other country is still trying to enter the neighbouring country...
MA1433 rightly said...Asia and Africa are loaded with oil and other natural resources ...but they don't know how to harvest them.. US and other countries take advantage of that..

Assuming this was sarcasm; you aren't taking into account that for much of our history the US has been isolationists except when they absolutely deemed it necessary (often financially) to intervene. We are also as a people insulated by our extremely large economy, from the sway and flux of the world around us. This issue in Sudan, for example, has absolute 0 effect on 99.9% of the US population. Weather there is a genocide or not, all that will happen is people will ignore it or they will post a picture/comment about their thoughts and prayers or whatever else people do on facebook these days.
Son Goku Yeah, people used the same rhetoric back during ww2. "Who cares what hitler is doing all the way across the sea in europe? It doesn't affect me personally." I think there's a difference between pointless wars like the iraq and vietnam wars and stopping a genocide. People hid behind the monroe doctrine and isolationism in the events leading up to ww2 and its interesting to see they are still hiding behind it.
Henry Leopold There is a difference - the difference is the economic impact it will have on the US. And Sudan has almost none, unlike the oil rich countries in the Middle East.
As an African American I find it interesting that there are different ethic groups amongst Africans, in America Black is just one racial/ethnic group. Shows how much I know about my heritage.
African slaves were brought from around Africa to the Americas. Little regard was given to recording where those slaves came from. Few records were kept about slave lineages. Doubly so when you consider how often slave owners, the slave master's employees and the slave master's guests interbred with the slaves, thus creating babies who were half European and half African. Thus African Americans know little of where their ancestors came from.
It's the same with Asians. In Asia, they all hate each other, but in regions like Singapore, Malaysia, and the US where different Asian groups intermingle and just accept they all eat rice.
because you dont know where you from..an ethnicity is a folkloric identity not a national one...africa still doesnt understood that. civism over tribalism. its the solution.
Hey Vox, killer videos. But as much as I'm able to build a fighting war-machine-in-a-suit and program a home computing system that's witty, sometimes I have trouble making creative visualizations like the ones you do.

This is pretty bad, but I just went to Burger King and their grill wasn't working so I couldn't get a cheeseburger. Make a video about that Vox, you won't.
Thanks for the video gave more insight as to what is happening there. I'm from Sudan my self and I always just looked at it like it's just their second nature to keep fighting until they get tired without comprehending the scale of the conflict going on
I really want my country and South Sudan to be one country again. We can live differently this time. We are not too different. There will be no racism or discrimination like before. We will build a mixture of Mosques and Churches across the new Sudan and live together in harmony. We can spread the oil across the country and be the biggest and mightiest African country. I hope Bashir and his cronies are given capital punishment so we can finally move on from that history. Dubai and London are examples of places that can live together in a multicultural and multi religious land. The same can happen for Sudan and SS and I really hope it does.
After watching this, I feel proud to be an Indian. We are the most diverse populace in the world with over a thousand different languages and dialects. Dozen or more religious groups, and still we keep our differences aside and make it through every adversity coming our way. We have a lot of problems, but this is something that should make every Indian proud.
jumbovs Are you sure about that? Are you telling me parents would approve of someone marrying someone in a lower caste in big cities? You are pretty much lying right now. As for job apportunities for someone in a lower caste is minimal to none. The caste system in India is ingraved into the culture. It doesn't matter whether it is a big city or not. India has a bigger GDP than South Sudan and the fact that South Sudan is a 5 year old country makes it ridiculous for you to compare it to India.
fay guled I think you are more clueless than I am. I wasn't comparing the economic prowess of the two nations. I was talking about the ethnic and religious disparity. India for several centuries has been open to all kinds of cultures and religions. It makes sense to compare both because of the ethnic turmoil South Sudan is going through with only two major factions whereas India continues to harbour a population which is exponentially more diverse. Regarding the marriage quotient, you are right, but partially. Inter-caste marriage isn't very common but it's changing fast. People tend to marry into their own caste or religion, mostly because they have a certain amount of familiarity to the traditions and customs of their own caste. In India, tradition plays a huge role from birth till a man dies. People don't want to let go of that culture easily so they prefer someone from their own caste, so they can keep that going. I'll give you some facts and you can make up your mind after that. US: Interracial marriages - 8.4% India: Intercaste marriages - 11.4% Feel free to ask me for the source of these statistics. Though, I'm not someone who likes to belittle someone, according to surveys US actually fares worse than India. Despite being mostly homogenous in terms of religion, culture and language, still US fares a lot worse. My advice to you: It's easy to point out problems but difficult to solve them. Don't be predisposed to make certain assumptions when you clearly are ignorant about what's going on. I, despite being an Indian am mostly ignorant about my own country. US despite being called the most progressive nation still fares worse than India on a similar quotient. Caste system indeed is bad. But it's difficult to cleanse it easily from its roots because India is still less than 7 decades old and caste based discrimination started to become a taboo only after independence. The government gives more than ample opportunity to the people coming in lower caste category. 52.5 % of all government jobs and seats in educational institutions are reserve for lower caste category. Due to this, the lower caste sections who moved to cities and applied for reserved jobs enjoy a higher standard of living than a person from unreserved category. That's because it's relatively a lot easier to secure a job, if you belong to a reserved category as the cut off score is very low. I don't know what else to add. If you think I'm lying, you can look it up or I can provide the source of my info. Adios! P. S. I'd suggest you to talk to any friend who emigrated from India. And ask him about the situation. Perhaps you will get a better insight.
I am Sudanese and my relation with south Sudanese was playing in street all day with Barefoot and nothing called home since every house in the block is my home ,if you are African you probably understand what I mean, really love my brother and one day they had to leave by force of both governments, we all been crying . it started even before the independent of sudan from. the british was dividing the country just like the way it is now even in laws it was diffrent than the norh sudan wich was the spark of some reccemee, by the eurbian colonianesem that that in many countries in afriaca by purpose in inorder to make african alwayes in need for them. anyway Early early 1940s, from the last century groups of American missionsaries came to south sudan wich had had some local religions and they started to spread the Christianity and teaching them "thier rights" as they were claiming, wich was supeesd to be teaken from the northen goverment in case of undependent wich the northen ware lookedly looking for and most of them ware audocated and it was clear that they will teak power in case of indepenence, wich is exactly was the case. and since the firs day of our independent the they started asking for there right in resources and high position in goverment, that voice was by some political leader wich are now the leaders of south sudan and they ware alwayes armed and do not ask me where they got that arms from wich was enough to supplite the longest war in the history of africa wich is more than 50 years. US goverment was alwayes telling our southern brothers that after there independent the will be the swiss of africa and i am witing for that Swiss to become exist since have a lot of homes there in my country.

When they took on this responsibility they should have thought about the future and the way the state would be governed.
+Kev San it is in part because of colonialism, just look at India, it was a British colony as well, there seem to be a pattern here, and of course its also because people there can't resolve their differences and put their priorities right.
Fruitpunch That's why I had to mention the part where its also those people's fault. Its not either colonialism or those people's fault, such a false dichotomy.
One major cause of this was colonialism. More specifically, it was how the colonizers split up the continent. The borders they put down was wildly off from the many diverse ethnic groups there, many of which were enemies of each other. When the colonies gained independence, these bad borders still remained.

I bet you the UN will still watch this happen. again and again and again-
Because this will never end no matter how many times they intervene
Bureaucracy is to blame
Gilbert Beilschmidt Its because of the rivalry between the Veto powers, Russia against the US.
MrMeddyman well they can always intervene before it happens lol
Not only that, but the un doesnt really have a huge reason to fight :/
This is what happens when a country is created based on a racial and religious conflict ... once the "other" is not there anymore, we find another "other" to fight.... internally.
But that's fairly much how all countries are created
Yea it happened with lamia, now they don't have Hindus so they fight with shia and ahmadiyas
Anyone else back watching this video after the genocide actually started happening?
DatJellyJedi yes I’d say everyone who see it now is
About 400,000 now, and there's still the Corona Virus...
I'll never understand why ethnic groups fight it just doesn't make sense, and that's says alot because I'm from South Africa
Luke Anthony Lack of education. Why do you think in the US, it isn't as bad as other countries? The more educated you are, the more that you will see that other people aren't bad. In the US though, people force it with their click bait and also justify that one issue is all issue. Some people feel entitled and I'm guessing they're the ones not well educated.
ploianderson so you saying that in the US, the people that make problems bigger than what they are by using click bait and over exaggerating are the uneducated one's?
When a country is in civil unrest it's hard to unify and stabilize the country, add inequality, lawlessness and testosterone to the mix and you have civil war.
Genghis Hazara Lol testosterone?
Luke Anthony it's more a matter of who got what and us versus them, coupled together to make a situation that pits them against each other

The exact same thing happened to my family too.
Why is it that they don't get along? What do they fight about?
@@jacobjohnson8686 Tribal stuff also I think religion also plays a part in it
Do you think they can or does the country need to be split in half?
@@anari234 personally I really don’t know how to answer that, but I guess yes. Sudan and South Sudan is split because of religion and all types of different reasons. Different languages, religions, skin color.
this will probably be Rwanda 2.0
Probably not. In Rwanda nearly a million people were killed in acts of ethnic cleansing within the first 100 days of the purely sectarian 1994 conflict. This is way different. The South Sudanese civil wars been going on for four years now. Although lots of people have died, this is in a political conflict with sectarian undertones. Plus as of last year the situation was winding down with only an estimated 3000 or so people dying of it in 2015. Ever since 1994 people have been worried about genocide (rightly so). But this doesn't have the potential like Rwanda did.
Rowan McMullan I sure hope not, I wish the UN would step in, and block arm sales to the country, and send peacekeepers to keep both sides in order, but then you would have people whining
"THE UN IS TRYING TO CONTROL THE WORLD, ITS STEPPING INTO OTHER COUNTRIES, NEW WORLD ORDER CONFIRMED" you can't do anything without having people whining
yup
Why don't we just let them duke it out? Wars are an innate part of any country's history. This UN thing is getting annoying.
Yay. A sequel is always nice...
One of the best Vox videos yet: informative, educative and clear. Exactly what you want to be aware of such issues.
We will do nothing just like in Syria
Conscious warrior No, it's the reverse, because the travesty in Sudan has been going on years before Syria. But I agree with the do-nothing. 😎
Conscious warrior except make it worse
Syria is different, it's even more complicated than Sudan so 'doing something' is very difficult for the US or the UN
We shouldn't do anything in Syria except give people aid.
agreed Jalen. We stayed neutral in WWII until Japan attacked us.

can someone explain why dont they divide the country again?
gökçe arslan
great idea. you should become the next UN secretary.
how many times do you divide? until every village has it own government?
until every member of the each family is its own president
There is no geographical divide between the 2 ethnic group as South Sudan (and Sudan) are very diverse. (This would require mass migration and mobilization for the biggest 2 group). Also the other 40+ groups may start a domino effect all aiming for an independent State.
We (the world) did to them as we did to Palestine-Israel in 1948.
gökçe arslan they also probably fight over land because of resources. If enemy territory has resources you want, then youre gonna want to fight them for it
These are the kind of videos I subscribed to Vox for! Great work on trying to make people aware of issues like this to get more people involved

I'm a high school student in the International Baccalaureate diploma program, which is an international curriculum that ignores local curriculums. While all my generally educated friends are learning about Abraham Lincoln, we're learning about how HORRENDOUS the Rwandan Genocide was. The biggest thing that disgusted me was the complacency of the international community and the media's lack of interest. I'm so glad that channels like Vox are here to get the word out about these rising conflicts, people underestimate just how powerful the right media coverage can be in a situation as dire as this.
It would be interesting to see an update on this, Vox.
They forgot to mention that the root cause of the first conflict between the north and the south was originally established by the British colonialism, they basically enforced segregation system via closed zones preventing travel and trade between north and south for a long period of time causing a sense of detachment which ignited social divide and race issues.
So south sudan is new new sudan! How about we split South Sudan into South-East Sudan and South-West Sudan?
Theoniix They need to get it together. India split into pakistan and india to seperate religion. Ethnicity was able to hold themselves together making it diverse. South sudan could do the same
@@DanksterPaws But it didn't work properly, there's a lot of violence in the kashmir part of India.

eisa alaskar Humans cause Chaos, there will never be a time where theres actual peace. After years of war and we still don't have a year of peace? We try to bring unity, but fail so miserably. It'll take a long time until finally we get a day or an hour or a minute of peace. All we can do is to accept it.
Monarch Dream sadly you are true it's just isn't hard to just stop fighting and hold hands and sing 😞❤
+Andrew W this is useless and baseless cynicism. you cant make blanket statements on all of humanity's "nature"
***** Oh idk, Culture, Religion, Capitalism, ethnic differences, Resources? How does one just skip to "Human Nature" over all the material conditions on the earth?
Think about all the humans who have ever participated in wars (fighting in them). Lets just assume that is 1 Billion (even though its probably not even close), that still leaves 19 Billion Humans who've never engaged in violent wars.
Think about all the violent warlords and criminals whove ever existed in the world, then think about how many people are not violent criminals.
Yes there are millions of violent, hateful, abusive, and selfish people, but there are billions of people who are not like that. A few bad apples DON'T Spoil the bunch. The majority of humanity is good.
***** but there is no proven "Human Nature" that you can trace all human behavior/relations to. No code of conduct all humans are inherently programmed to live by.
You're oversimplifying.
this is so distressing but I'm glad Vox covers these issues. thank u. now how can we help fix it?
I always like these videos because they shed a light on something I'd never even heard of, but they make me feel guilty and then don't tell me what I could help do to stop it.

Lucy Hunt yea
Perhaps, but without it major powers would probably leave the UN and it would collapse just like the League of Nations did.

This is incredibly sad but I really feel that if a country decides to intervene or not, they'll be criticised. It's not a decision to take lightly and must be done right.
It's a similar to the story of India and Pakistan... both of them got independent with the genocide of Hindus and sikhs. .. Pakistan again got divided to form Bangladesh... genocide of Bengali Muslims and Hindus... Pakistan could have shattered again but they kept fighting wars against India which kinda boosts their national integrity... otherwise there will be no Pakistan
Brewing Oleum Since Forever except that here you don't have two separate Territorys
David Rodriguez I think there is nothing which holds South Sudan together... e.g. war against Sudan kept them together...same is with Pakistan..their hatred against India keeps them together
I like how you mention genocide of Hindus during separation of pak and ind while COMPLETELY ignoring deaths of Sikhs and Muslims as well. Everyone suffered.
Razy Ahmed I m sorry if I forgot to mention Sikhs, I will edit it...but in case of Muslims I don't think it was a genocide...it was Mohammed Ali Jinnah who declared direct action against Hindus and Sikhs...lakhs of Hindus and Sikhs were raped, killed, robbed in Muslim majority areas...contrary to that...in India, Gandhi and other Congress leaders were continuously trying to calm down the people including Muslims...the fact is Congress was trying to represent whole country as one...but Muslim league was just working for Muslims...that's the difference... and that's why Pakistan is way behind India in all areas....rightly said ...one country reached to Mars...other country is still trying to enter the neighbouring country...

Assuming this was sarcasm; you aren't taking into account that for much of our history the US has been isolationists except when they absolutely deemed it necessary (often financially) to intervene. We are also as a people insulated by our extremely large economy, from the sway and flux of the world around us. This issue in Sudan, for example, has absolute 0 effect on 99.9% of the US population. Weather there is a genocide or not, all that will happen is people will ignore it or they will post a picture/comment about their thoughts and prayers or whatever else people do on facebook these days.
see: straw man argument, false dichotomy
Son Goku Yeah, people used the same rhetoric back during ww2. "Who cares what hitler is doing all the way across the sea in europe? It doesn't affect me personally." I think there's a difference between pointless wars like the iraq and vietnam wars and stopping a genocide. People hid behind the monroe doctrine and isolationism in the events leading up to ww2 and its interesting to see they are still hiding behind it.
Henry Leopold
There is a difference - the difference is the economic impact it will have on the US. And Sudan has almost none, unlike the oil rich countries in the Middle East.
2:36 60 ethnic groups in a place so small. It's incredible
Africa is more diverse than the universe kid That's why you should love it!!!
@@Elieditssportvids its also not a good thing tho. We suffer too much tribalism because of it
As an African American I find it interesting that there are different ethic groups amongst Africans, in America Black is just one racial/ethnic group. Shows how much I know about my heritage.
The Visionary Africa is very diverse continent
African slaves were brought from around Africa to the Americas. Little regard was given to recording where those slaves came from. Few records were kept about slave lineages.
Doubly so when you consider how often slave owners, the slave master's employees and the slave master's guests interbred with the slaves, thus creating babies who were half European and half African.
Thus African Americans know little of where their ancestors came from.
It's the same with Asians. In Asia, they all hate each other, but in regions like Singapore, Malaysia, and the US where different Asian groups intermingle and just accept they all eat rice.
because you dont know where you from..an ethnicity is a folkloric identity not a national one...africa still doesnt understood that. civism over tribalism. its the solution.
They forgot to say the northerners are mostly arab and detested the very dark skinned black south sudanese (dinka, nuer, etc.)
This is about Sotuh Sudan though.
Yes exactly the north still mistreat the south sudanese because of their complexion and looks. Lets not forget they still enslave the south sudanese
well I guess "the very dark skinned black south sudanese (dinka, nuer, etc.)" treat each other very gently
Literally just watched this yesterday and now there seems like there is peace in South Sudan

I really want my country and South Sudan to be one country again. We can live differently this time. We are not too different. There will be no racism or discrimination like before. We will build a mixture of Mosques and Churches across the new Sudan and live together in harmony. We can spread the oil across the country and be the biggest and mightiest African country. I hope Bashir and his cronies are given capital punishment so we can finally move on from that history. Dubai and London are examples of places that can live together in a multicultural and multi religious land. The same can happen for Sudan and SS and I really hope it does.
America wanted South Sudan to be independant? Get it back into Sudan, ASAP.
But that does not fix the civill waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar

After watching this, I feel proud to be an Indian. We are the most diverse populace in the world with over a thousand different languages and dialects. Dozen or more religious groups, and still we keep our differences aside and make it through every adversity coming our way. We have a lot of problems, but this is something that should make every Indian proud.
jumbovs I steal don't get it how you do that
jumbovs Are you going to disregard the caste system? It is one of the worst systems in the world.
jumbovs Are you sure about that? Are you telling me parents would approve of someone marrying someone in a lower caste in big cities? You are pretty much lying right now. As for job apportunities for someone in a lower caste is minimal to none. The caste system in India is ingraved into the culture. It doesn't matter whether it is a big city or not. India has a bigger GDP than South Sudan and the fact that South Sudan is a 5 year old country makes it ridiculous for you to compare it to India.
jumbovs
Is India even a peaceful place?
fay guled I think you are more clueless than I am. I wasn't comparing the economic prowess of the two nations. I was talking about the ethnic and religious disparity. India for several centuries has been open to all kinds of cultures and religions. It makes sense to compare both because of the ethnic turmoil South Sudan is going through with only two major factions whereas India continues to harbour a population which is exponentially more diverse.
Regarding the marriage quotient, you are right, but partially. Inter-caste marriage isn't very common but it's changing fast. People tend to marry into their own caste or religion, mostly because they have a certain amount of familiarity to the traditions and customs of their own caste. In India, tradition plays a huge role from birth till a man dies. People don't want to let go of that culture easily so they prefer someone from their own caste, so they can keep that going.
I'll give you some facts and you can make up your mind after that.
US: Interracial marriages - 8.4%
India: Intercaste marriages - 11.4%
Feel free to ask me for the source of these statistics. Though, I'm not someone who likes to belittle someone, according to surveys US actually fares worse than India. Despite being mostly homogenous in terms of religion, culture and language, still US fares a lot worse.
My advice to you: It's easy to point out problems but difficult to solve them. Don't be predisposed to make certain assumptions when you clearly are ignorant about what's going on. I, despite being an Indian am mostly ignorant about my own country. US despite being called the most progressive nation still fares worse than India on a similar quotient.
Caste system indeed is bad. But it's difficult to cleanse it easily from its roots because India is still less than 7 decades old and caste based discrimination started to become a taboo only after independence. The government gives more than ample opportunity to the people coming in lower caste category. 52.5 % of all government jobs and seats in educational institutions are reserve for lower caste category. Due to this, the lower caste sections who moved to cities and applied for reserved jobs enjoy a higher standard of living than a person from unreserved category. That's because it's relatively a lot easier to secure a job, if you belong to a reserved category as the cut off score is very low. I don't know what else to add. If you think I'm lying, you can look it up or I can provide the source of my info.
Adios!
P. S. I'd suggest you to talk to any friend who emigrated from India. And ask him about the situation. Perhaps you will get a better insight.

I am Sudanese and my relation with south Sudanese was playing in street all day with Barefoot and nothing called home since every house in the block is my home ,if you are African you probably understand what I mean, really love my brother and one day they had to leave by force of both governments, we all been crying . it started even before the independent of sudan from. the british was dividing the country just like the way it is now even in laws it was diffrent than the norh sudan wich was the spark of some reccemee, by the eurbian colonianesem that that in many countries in afriaca by purpose in inorder to make african alwayes in need for them. anyway Early early 1940s, from the last century groups of American missionsaries came to south sudan wich had had some local religions and they started to spread the Christianity and teaching them "thier rights" as they were claiming, wich was supeesd to be teaken from the northen goverment in case of undependent wich the northen ware lookedly looking for and most of them ware audocated and it was clear that they will teak power in case of indepenence, wich is exactly was the case. and since the firs day of our independent the they started asking for there right in resources and high position in goverment, that voice was by some political leader wich are now the leaders of south sudan and they ware alwayes armed and do not ask me where they got that arms from wich was enough to supplite the longest war in the history of africa wich is more than 50 years. US goverment was alwayes telling our southern brothers that after there independent the will be the swiss of africa and i am witing for that Swiss to become exist since have a lot of homes there in my country.

Kev San What Kodema and Skyshocke are explaining is the painfully obvious.
Well, no.
Fruitpunch That's why I had to mention the part where its also those people's fault. Its not either colonialism or those people's fault, such a false dichotomy.
One major cause of this was colonialism. More specifically, it was how the colonizers split up the continent. The borders they put down was wildly off from the many diverse ethnic groups there, many of which were enemies of each other. When the colonies gained independence, these bad borders still remained.
