While Unity is one of the 10 states of South Sudan, it is better known as one of the three conflict-affected states in the country. Due to its geographic location and association with the Greater Upper Nile region, Unity is also known as Western Upper Nile. It covers an area of 38,837 sq km (14,995 sq mi) and is inhabited predominantly by two ethnic groups – the Nuer and the Dinka. Its economy is primarily agricultural but it is also rich in oil resources. Southern Sudan’s first oil reserves were discovered in this region during the 1970s.

  • Article 7 on South Sudan Developments in South Sudan Conflict: Unity and Upper Nile and Possibility of Additional 60,000 White A
    Ottawa Article 7 on South Sudan Monday, January-27-14 Developments in South Sudan Conflict: Unity and Upper Nile and possibility of additional 60,000 White Army Our Articles 1 to 3 and 5 & 6 were situation analysis of the conflict in South Sudan. Our article 4 (A) and (B) were the first of our series on “Who is Who”. This article (7) deals with analysis of the military landscape in Unity and Upper Nile and analysis the situation in Jonglei State if the 6 generals who escaped Juba can make it to Fangak. The account below will demonstrate that the SPLA/Government of the Republic of South Sudan (GRSS) were in continuous war within South Sudan since 2005 to date. The war depleted and fatigues the SPLA. The absorbed unruly and ill-trained rebels in peace agreements further deteriorated the quality of army and police cadre. Please be patient and read through to the end. Unity State Background We wish to take you back to 2006 and Juba Declaration with Paulino Matip Nhial (Bul Nuer from Unity). The following officers/Generals in his forces disagreed with President Kiir and Paulino Matip on the military and political positions offered by the SPLM/A to SSDF. The terms of Juba Declaration were mostly negotiated by Paulino Matip and Salva Kiir without the involvement of the below mentioned officers of SSDF. 1- Gen Gordon Koang Chuol (Jikany Nuer, Ulang County in Upper Nile-born in Ethiopia) 2- Gen Gabriel Tanginye 3- Gen Thomas Mabor Dhol 4- General John Duiet Yiech 5- Brigadier General (then in 2011) Bapiny Monytuel Wijang 6- Brig.
