After decades of civil war against the North, South Sudan celebrated its independence on the 9th of July 2011 and became the de facto newest country in the world. Ten years later, South Sudan’s record is grim, with two civil wars and two peace agreements signed since its independence. There are, however, signs of hope for a more peaceful future, argues CSS' Joane Holliger in this à propos-article for swisspeace.
