Education
In 1930 the literacy system was introduced and included reading and writing. But ever since the evacuation that happened during the war, the education system has disappeared. Hopefully the system will reappear when South Sudan is a strong country. When the education system was in place, kids did not go to school until the age of 10, or the middle school age. Imagine doing 1st grade in 6th grade!
Historical Events
In 1985, the government in Northern Sudan decided that everyone in their country should be their religion. But South Sudan wanted to keep their religion, therefore causing a war. The Dinka tribesmen had to flee their home and walk east a long way. What did not help is they had to cross through the lion region and come across their worst enemy- the Nuer tribe. They have always had to defend their their land from other tribes.
