Political+History

=Politics In Sudan=

The political process in Sudan is very complicated and complex. There are been problems with it for years and the solutions seem like they will never come. Not democracy, but authoritarianism has provided the country with a sense of self rule. History and outside influences shape the Sudanese government. For about 50 years, military rule has shaped its political structure. Although the events in Darfur have just recently brought light on the broken system, it has been in turmoil for a very long time. The old systems that maintained order in Sudan, have been obliterated by the national government. There has been no mechanism to resolve local conflict, so there is much turmoil in every day life. Most of the problems in the Sudanese government stem from the many divisions of it's country and the religions that go with these divisions. --Laura H
