Sudan Civil War

            The second Sudanese Civil War lasted from 1983 to 2005, or about 22 years! When the war escalated over two million people died by famine and disease as a result. Some of these diseases were malaria and other such diseases carried in water and in insects. Meanwhile the famine was caused by the slaughtering of animals and killing of many other civilians. When there wasn’t enough food to feed the growing armies of both sides the civilians were left to starve. Most of their food was stolen from them and they died themselves. Another affect of the war was that over four million people were forced to flee their native country and birthplace, Sudan. More civilians died in this war than in any other war except WWII. This civil war left many displaced and even more scared for life with the losses and endurances hey went through. This was a horrible thing to happen and yet countries have wars like this almost every decade.
