Try again, but this time use SOUTH Sudan.

Thank you. While you two were replying, I was already writing the apology and correction against my first reply in comment #7.

Agreed on the cause of the many fights in South Sudan, too: lack of culture. Again, I’m sorry that I misunderstood. My mistake.

I’m inhibited against blaming it on tribal culture in general, though. Some tribal cultures of the past in places other than Africa weren’t so bad (from pre-Greek-Empire Israel to pre-Roman-Empire Anatolia to ancient northwestern Europe). And my contemporary tribe (AKA clan) is a little rough around the edges but not so bad. As a matter of opinion, we need more tribes for ourselves! Family was the foundation of civilization for us.

Can’t understand why the U.S.A. got involved in Somalia during the ‘90s, either. The atrocities were committed against our own soldiers by the Clintons and their constituents who sent our men to Somalia.

The international push against the Boers decades ago in SA was also wrong.
