南蘇丹共和國

位於東非的內陸國家,是世界上最動盪的地區之一。2011年從蘇丹共和國獨立出來,是全球最年輕的國家。但年輕不代表充滿活力。南蘇丹無論是人類發展指數、人均GDP、政治腐敗評分、還是全球和平指數,通通都是全球倒數五名內。1,119萬人口當中,有280萬兒童失學,450萬兒童需要人道救援,190所學校因洪水而關閉。然而,因為南蘇丹被認為可能擁有非洲第三多石油儲量,使其成為中國和美國的關注焦點,雙方皆試圖掌控南蘇丹的石油獲益。除此之外,美國也希望藉由南蘇丹的戰略位置,打擊在蘇丹的極端主義分子。不管南蘇丹的人民願不願意,他們已經被迫參與國際秩序的衝突和競爭。

South Sudan is a land-locked state in East Africa with its area covered mainly by tropical rainforests, grasslands and swamps. It became an independent state from the Republic of the Sudan in 2011 after a referendum showing 98.83% of support for independence, making it one of the youngest countries in the world. However, a civil war ensued right after independence. This political power struggle between the president and his deputy left behind a death toll of tens of thousands. Signing of a peace agreement and the national unity government being formed in 2020 failed to stop the violence. More than 16,000 UN peacekeepers remain deployed in the country to this day. The GDP per capita of this country comes in as the second lowest in the world. Constant famine and conflicts render the country in dire need of humanitarian aid.
