South Sudan has been fighting for a long time (we have a lot of their refugees here, or particularly in my area of Blacktown, scratch we think they may have mistaken the name for instructions)

I generally support them as they have been fighting to split from the Muslim north that wants/has Sharia law. They are Christians and other, the first company they registered as an independent nation was Beer Company.
