  • A. A. Mohammed

摘要

The emergence of South Sudan as the world’s youngest country in 2011 marked a pivotal moment in Africa’s history, particularly in the context of Nile water hydro-politics. This essay delves into the establishment of South Sudan and its profound implications for the dynamics of the Nile Basin. Through a qualitative research approach incorporating primary and secondary data sources, the study unveils a landscape of challenges and opportunities as South Sudan’s presence reshapes cooperative and conflictive behaviors surrounding Nile water usage. With South Sudan joining as the 11th Nile riparian country, a new dynamic disrupts the traditional power balance, hinting at a shift in the region’s political landscape. The establishment of South Sudan not only introduces a fresh perspective but also sets the stage for basin-wide ramifications, underscoring the intricate interplay of perils and promises in the realm of Nile River politics.
