Source of the conflict: Government Corruption

Government Corruption:

• The government of Sudan is engaged in committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in an ongoing conflict in the country surrounding exploitation of oil resources.
• Although South Sudan has acquired their independence, the government of Sudan is still engaged in conflict between the two countries. (Other countries have attempted to intervene, treaties & peace agreements have been signed but no progress will be made)
• Political marginalization: People outside of Khartoum are not adequately represented in the Sudanese government.
• Economic Disparity: This is due to unequal development between North Sudan and South Sudan. Much of this inequality is because of oil production. The Sudanese government taxes the oil-rich areas without compensating their inhabitants.
• Direct & indirect killing of citizens.

Conclusion & Reflection: The ultimate cause for conflict within the government of Sudan is corrupt practices by government officials. War crimes, crimes against humanity (killing of citizens), focus on oil exportation (disputes with S. Sudan), issues of independence with South Sudan, officials embezzling of public funds, and lack of ANYTHING to help the problem. Sudan's government is full of selfish politicians who obviously care nothing about improving the status of the country. They commit crime after crime, are still focused on conflict with South Sudan, and steal money that doesn't belong to them. The government refuses to do anything to solve the conflicts that are so obvious within their country. No attention is paid to the remainder of the country and its people, only the capital city of Khartoum.
