Sudan
Sudan has had only 11 years of peace since independence in 1956,
and the years of war have left a legacy of chronic poverty in many
parts. Today there are significant disparities between the richer
north and the south, and conflict in Darfur, in western Sudan, has
resulted in more than 200,000 killed and some 2.5 million displaced
since 2003.
