Finish blog discussion adn then played trivia.
Sudan split into 2 earlier this year. They have been in civil war for a long time.
Darfur- it started with farmers and herdsmen fightning over land. The war is over land. The war started in 2003. between darfur and liberation front of the sudan government. SLM nd JEM are good guys(Darfur) they are being attacked by Janjaweed and the Sudanese gov't(leader al-Bashir. Darfur rebeles wanted freedom because the government was taking away their land. The Sudanese would take oil to supply weapons and fund attacks on Darfur rebels. The Sudanese government denies that they supported the attacks on the Darfur rebels. Janjaweed would burn the viliages, rape women, posion the water supply. The reward was able to steal things and weapons. around 400,000 people were killed. Darfur people fled to Chad to get away from the war. the Sudanese government and janjaweed wanted the land of Darfur. In July 2011 there was a peace agreement. The peace agreement was between the government of Sudan and the rebels. The government would give 3 million dollars to the Darfur victims. Sudan will allow some Darfuring control. Sharing the power. They will decide if Darfur will be its own country. The US and the UN didnt do very much. They put sanctions on them(dont trade) People donated money. the UN was finally able to send peace keeping troops into Darfur. The Sudanese government would not allow it for a long time.
