There is a war going on in Darfur that started in Febuary of 2003. Darfur is in Sudan and is divided into three different states; North Darfur, South Darfur, and West Darfur. The separation of different states started because of the war.
Conflict(s): Groups of people in Darfur started aiming hate towards the government, because the people started to think the government was neglecting them. The government campainged back at the people who were rebelling against them.
Because of this war over 300,000 people have died and millions which is mostley farmers and villagers from non Arab groups have to leave their home/the country. There were millions of people trapped there.
Peace Agreement: This agreement was signed finally in May 5th 2006by the Government of Sudan and a Sudan Movement Liberation. This agrrement was rejected by a group of people which then there came some more conflicts. This Peace Agreement would give this country wealth and power sharing and establish an authority. This agreement was withdrawed in 2010 and the assistant leader of Sudan then went and hid in South Sudan.
Geography of Darfur: Half of Darfur has plains, sandstone hills and low hills. It has a soil that is to rich to farm on. The other side of Darfur which would be called the Northern side is overcome by the Saharrah Dessert. Also in the Northern Region when it is wet season some part of that part will flood and all that water will then runn thousands of miles and reaches Lake Chad.
