The conflict in Sudan has been a long-standing and complex issue, marked by a history of civil wars, ethnic tensions, and political upheaval. It largely centers around issues of power, resources, and identity. The most notable conflicts include the Darfur conflict, which began in the early 2000s and resulted in significant violence and displacement, and the Second Sudanese Civil War, which lasted for decades and ultimately led to the secession of South Sudan in 2011. While there have been some efforts at peace and political transition, Sudan continues to grapple with internal conflicts, economic challenges, and a search for stability and lasting peace.
