    Quick correction: African tribes in west Sudan are Muslim, not Christian. So the Darfur conflict is solely ethnic, not religious. Which of course doesn’t make it better in any type of way

    Darfur might be just one of Sudan's regions, but it is BIG. Sudan is still a huge country, even after South Sudan broke away. So, how big is Darfur? It is roughly the same size (and shape), and also has about the same size population, as Sweden.

    Sudan as an modern entity was created by Egypt in the early 1800s when the Egyptians attempted to colonise Africa. They occupied the Nile up to Ethiopia then lost and got colonised themselves by the British. At that point Sudan became an Anglo-Egyptian condominium. The British empire eventually declines. Egypt gains its independence, Sudan gains their later with all the territories that Egypt conquered in the 1800s (ie up to Ethiopia). Various peoples of Sudan began to fight for their independence. Khartoum fought to keep those people under it’s thumb. This goes on for a few decades and devolves into various genocides. Around this time osama bin Ladin was living in Sudan and starts attacking the USA ending with 9/11. Sudan depots bin Ladin to Afghanistan but this still draws the ire of the Americans who use their global influence to spilt Sudan in two while they were busy invading Iraq, Afghanistan etc. This leads to South Sudan achieving its independence after 200 years of occupation first by the Egyptian, then British, then Anglo-Egyptians, then Sudanese. But the American did not really care about or understand Sudan so they peaced out when they split South Sudan from the north but in reality there are other regions of Sudan that exist in the same situation as South Sudan and the quintessential example is Darfur. Darfur is a historic African Country that first dates back to the Daju kingdom that dates back to the 12 century.

    What I would also like to add. The RSF forces come from the more rural, nomadic and tribal parts of Sudan which have stronger martial cultures. The RSF have been engaged in war often in recently years. The Sudanese loyalists meanwhile mainly draw from more urban areas of Sudan/regions that practice sedentary agriculture. A huge reason why the RSF can shift more than it’s mass despite having less desirable circumstances. The RSF’s fighters are more prone, hardened and charactered to conflict.

    @@fnansjy456 Nationalism if about nation, tribalism is about tribe, I suppose. Nation is not the same thing as tribe. Nation is a mass of people of the same history/language/religion. Tribe has stuctured distribution of power. And I think that tribes are usually smaller and people are interconnected by kinship, which has no role in nations. Europe had tribes as well in its past. Why is the word tribe disrespectfull? It just decribes different organisation of society, without any intend to insult anyone.

    The issue is that break-offs can set off a chain reaction of splits. Some argue that this is why Darfur is where it is. The African Union is REALLY cautious about recognizing seceding groups for this very reason. There's not necessarily an easy solution, and no one party to blame. Even states without a history of being colonized (Ethiopia for example) have the same sort of problems.

    Nuba Mountains / South Khordofan is actually the most likely region to split from Sudan soon to become an independent. The reason is because they have stronger armed movement known as SPLM-N there and they have been fighting the government of Sudan since 2011. Those people don’t tolerate Arabs’s nonsense in Sudan. Sudan will likely be splitted into more 4 countries soon.

    Frankly, the lines of a lot of countries in Africa probably need to be redrawn. The way the colonial powers did it screwed up a lot of things, such as putting together incompatible tribes / religious groups. The people living there oughta fight it out and draw the borders in a way that works for THEM.

    The problem with such a plan is that ethnicities usually dont have clear borders between themselves. The population is usually scattered and making a border between them usually leads to lots of violence. Other problem is that many ethic groups claim some territory where they are in minority now or even dont live at all but where they used to live - and were forcefully expelled from it or exterminated by other ethnic group.

    I love how the arguement always boils down to " we can only deal with people exactly like us". Time to grow up and actually work together instead of genociding because the Derka-Derkas got 1 extra acre of scrub land from the Derka-Dinkas 5 centuries ago. And don't even get me started on the Dinka-Derkas.

    @@ryansauchuk7290 Old worlders arent exactly known for letting bygones be bygones. Most of these places still have ongoing ancient blood feuds that go waaaaaaay back. Europe used to be much the same. Literally the only reason they're not still is because the continent experienced the two most deadly and destructive wars in human history BACK TO BACK and this all happened very recently - just shy of living memory now.

    ​@@ryansauchuk7290It's not that simple, people aren't interchangeable cogs. There is beef, centuries-old beef. That doesn't go away until you reach the apocalyptic levels of destruction, that Europe saw in the World Wars. Even then, it's only a matter of time until old rivalries re-ignite in Europe - This is human nature.
