Sudán del Sur limita con la República Centroafricana, la República Democrática del Congo, Uganda, Kenia, Etiopía, Sudán.
Because of the independence of South Sudan, Sudan (with the capital in Khartoum) will be no longer the largest country in Africa and the Arab World. Algeria will replace it to become the 10 largest country in the world, the largest country in Africa and the Arab World.

Most South Sudanese practice Christianity or Animism.
Before the independence of South Sudan, Montenegro and Serbia were the newest sovereign states in the world following the dissolution of Yugoslavia. Kosovo, Abkhazia, South Ossetia also declared their independences but they are not widely recognized diplomatically.
South Sudan will become the 193rd member of the United Nations, the 54th member of 
the African Union, the 23rd member of 
the League of Arab States if the country joins these organizations.
The country will be named the "Republic of South Sudan" when it declares its independence.

Fidalgo! It is good to hear from you again! Your post is very interesting. I hope for the sucess of this new country, and will be watching for news articles about it!
South Sudan has become an independent country since 12:01 a.m. UTC +3
Let us hope now that they can enter a time of prosperity and peace .
these are Ethiopians enjoying life in OZ as Aussies.
Now perhaps the South Sudanese can have the same kind of freedom.
there are massive celebrations going on right now in Melbourne by the
Australian Sudanese community living here , good on them.
The total land area, not taking into account any disputed territory, is very close to that of the USA's Texas at 268,580 sq mi = 695,621 sq km, France at 247,219 square miles = 640,294 sq km and Ukraine at 233,090 square miles = 603,700 sq km, just to give some idea of its overall size...
I was just wondering about the following comment:
Most South Sudanese practice Christianity and Animism.
...when you use "and," does that make these two religions inclusive? So a form of dual-faith or interfaith on the part of the majority? I know something similar took place with the native Americans that some of the major religions tried to convert centuries ago.... 
They have voted for their independence but they're not yet free from persecution. They are asking for help and need a great deal of financial support. Muslim armies from the north are persecuting black Christians. Thousands are fleeing. They are fearful, hungry and without shelter. Bishop Macram Max Gassis of El Obeid Diocese, Sudan is trying to keep the villages in tact so the people won't have to run around homeless. Please help if you can:
