Introduction:

South Sudan, officially the Republic of South Sudan, is a landlocked country in East-Central Africa. It is bordered by Ethiopia to the east, Kenya to the southeast, Uganda to the south, the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the southwest, the Central African Republic to the west, and Sudan to the north. South Sudan has an area of 619,745 square kilometers (239,285 square miles), making it the 43rd-largest country in the world. The country is divided into 10 states and has a population of over 11 million people.

South Sudan gained independence from Sudan in 2011 after a long and bloody civil war. Since then, the country has faced numerous challenges, including ethnic conflict, political instability, and economic underdevelopment. Despite these challenges, South Sudan has made significant progress in recent years, and it is now one of the fastest-growing economies in the world.

South Sudan is a culturally diverse country with a rich history and tradition. The people of South Sudan are known for their hospitality and their love of music and dance. The country is also home to a number of important historical sites, including the ruins of the ancient city of Kush.
