This Represents the major conflicts in the Sudanese area. In the early 1970's there was a major confilct, which caused Africas biggest famine. The Sudanese government started to ignore the economic intrests of the the people of Darfur, which was a main cause of the famine. Then the government was accused of being "rebels". Then the government appointed the Arab militia called the Janjaweed to stop the conflict between the tribes of Sudan: the Pastoral, and the Agricultural Tribes. In 2003 the conflict resumed after many thought the issue in Darfur with the Jajaweed resulted in a mass genocide of innocent people of the Darfur region. This map shows the major conflicts in Africa represented by the orange and white diagonal stripes.
