A New Country will be Born: South Sudan

Fulfilling Washington's agenda, one of the most impoverished areas will become a new nation. However, the birth of South Sudan will not solve the deeply entrenched problems of the country: one of the highest rates of poverty, and maternal death--and tribal wars unearthing the stability of the community.

South Sudan's birth is testimony of the Western powers dividing Africa with little consideration devoted to the concerns of the tribes. As a result, the country is racked with conflict between 190 ethnic and cultural groups that had formed eons ago. The new country will depend on foreign aid.

What is the cost of Western's greed to carve up Africa between European nations? Tribal unrest in Africa that further hinders the development of African nations.
