The First Sudanese Civil War (1955–1972) erupted even before Sudan gained full independence from Britain and Egypt\, as southern Sudanese groups resisted domination by Khartoum. The Addis Ababa Agreement of 1972 granted the South a measure of autonomy\, but this peace collapsed in 1983 when the government revoked autonomy and tried to impose Islamic law nationwide. \nThis sparked the Second Sudanese Civil War (1983–2005)\, led by the Sudan People's Liberation Movement/Army (SPLM/A) under John Garang. The war was one of the longest and deadliest in Africa\, costing more than 2 million lives and displacing millions. \nIn 2005\, the SPLM/A and the Sudanese government signed the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA). This treaty ended active conflict\, granted southern Sudan six years of autonomy\, and promised a referendum on independence in 2011. Though John Garang died in a helicopter crash shortly after the Agreement\, his successor Salva Kiir Mayardit carried forward the vision for independence. \nFrom January 9 to 15\, 2011\, the referendum was held under international monitoring. The results were overwhelming: 98.83% of voters chose independence. The outcome reflected decades of struggle and the aspirations of the southern people for self-rule. \nOn July 9\, 2011\, South Sudan was officially declared the world's newest nation. Salva Kiir Mayardit was sworn in as the first President\, and the new flag of South Sudan was raised in Juba. Just days later\, on July 14\, 2011\, South Sudan joined the United Nations as its 193rd member.
