Carlos, refugee worker These are Colombia's displaced people, the strikingly-visible evidence of the chaos wreaked by this civil war. If peace efforts fail, there are fears that thousands more could soon be driven from their homes across the Colombian countryside, to end up here.

If there's no peace, what can we hope for?" asked Carlos gloomily, when it looked like the peace talks were going to collapse.

FAS Intelligence World Agencies Para-States ... Join FAS Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) With the exception of a fragile peace established by negotiations between southern Sudanese insurgents (the Anya Nya) and the Sudan government at Addis Ababa in 1972, and lasting until the resumption of the conflict in 1983, southern Sudan has been a battlefield. The north-south distinction and the hostility between the two regions of Sudan is grounded in religious conflict as well as a conflict between peoples of differing culture and language. The language and culture of the north are based on Arabic and the Islamic faith, whereas the south has its own diverse, mostly non-Arabic languages and cultures with few exceptions non-Muslim, and its religious character was indigenous (traditional or Christian). The origins of the civil war in the south date back to the 1950s. On August 18, 1955, the Equatoria Corps, a military unit composed of southerners, mutinied at Torit. Rather than surrender to Sudanese government authorities, many mutineers disappeared into hiding with their weapons, marking the beginning of the first war in southern Sudan. By the late 1960s, the war had resulted in the deaths of about 500,000 people. Several hundred thousand more southerners hid in the forests or escaped to refugee camps in neighboring countries. By 1969 the rebels had developed foreign contacts to obtain weapons and supplies. Israel, for example, trained Anya Nya recruits and shipped weapons via Ethiopia and Uganda to the rebels. Anya Nya also purchased arms from Congolese rebels. Government operations against the rebels declined after the 1969 coup, and ended with the Addis Ababa accords of 1972 which guaranteed autonomy for the southern region.

At the beginning of the Civil War; he was asked, by this friend, General Winfield Scott, to command the Department of Pennsylvania, which included Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland. His first conflict of the Civil War brought him face to face with Confederate Colonel Thomas J. (Stonewall) Jackson at Harper’s Ferry. After some initial success, Patterson was to contain General Johnston and keep him and his Army from reaching Bull Run. Patterson appears to have been totally out maneuvered by Johnston. By not achieving this objective, Patterson was relieved of his command.

In April of 1862, he became Brigadier General U.S.V. and commanded the 3 rd Brigade of the Army of the Potomac. He fought at Williamsburg and Seven Pines. While defending Washington, he was falsely informed that the enemy was at Warrenton junction. Acting on this information, he withdrew his troops and as a result was relieved of his command by General Daniel E. Sickles. With this incident still being contested, he retired to his tent where he was found dead shortly thereafter. By appearances, it was an accidental discharge from his own revolver.

Students should study one or more battles of the war to understand some of the strategy that shaped the course of the war. The study of the battles of Gettysburg, Shiloh, and Antietam would be useful for this purpose. 3. The focus of this question should be on the people whose lives were impacted by the war.

She lived in Tenancingo, a small town in central El Salvador, at the time of the photo. Before the war, she and her extended family lived in a hamlet just north of the town and participated in Christian communities led by lay catechists trained in liberation theology. Many members of her family were killed by government forces during a period of indiscriminate violence that culminated in the bombing of Tenancingo by the Salvadoran Air Force during an occupation of the town by guerrilla forces. Photo: Elisabeth Jean Wood Some of the most devastating and protracted conflicts in history have not been between opposing nations but between factions within the same nation. Clashes such as those in Bosnia, Angola, and the Middle East illustrate the fact that civil war has become a growing threat to contemporary civilization. In fact, 95 percent of all conflicts since the end of the Cold War have been civil wars. One SFI visiting research professor, Elisabeth Jean Wood, is bent on finding out what factors permit peace to come to countries caught in the vise of civil war. She brings to the topic scientific objectivity laced with compassion borne of experiencing the ravages of war first hand.

PRINT DISCUSSION CHINESE SEND TO FRIEND One million people died, four million others got displaced and the same number of families are separated throughout the country as a result of 27 years of armed conflict in Angola , disclosed "Doctors Without Border", a non-governmental organization. According to a report titled "Angola, after war the abandonment" released on Thursday in Luanda, war in Angola was one of the longest and most violent in Africa after de-colonization causing a complete disarticulation of the society and the communities. "Doctors Without Border" calls on the Angolan government and other NGOs to speed up and increase emergency aids with a view to stock food and first need goods at displaced's camps and sheltering areas due to the rainy reason that makes difficult access to those zones. "Doctors Without Border" has been working in Angola for 19 years.
