A story about Sudanese family in the Sudanese border

There is a belief that South Sudan and North Sudan are two different countries and that the people who are living in these two different countries have two different beliefs two different ways of looking at things and to different race. It is believed or what the media portrays that the Sudan has Arabs living in the North and African living in the South. And that the conflict in the Sudan is solely/mainly based on race and religion. But there is more to that than what meets the eye, there is more to that than you hear or watch in the news. What many of these people don't know is that the Sudan is a country that has the Nile River crossing from the South's up to the North and more to Egypt. So ever since the dawn of history many people have traveled up north and many people have traveled down south. They exchange of goods along the Nile River. And many people who lived in the North have came down to live the South's and vice versa so the exchange of cultures and the exchange of people between different areas in North Sudan in South Sudan has been and was there ever since the dawn of history. So when you divide a country between North and South's Sudan you are not just dividing the border you are dividing the people, they are people who are not fully from the south and people who are not fully from the North if we can consider that the southern people have their own characteristic and the northern people have their own characteristic, there are people who just considered himself to be Sudanese they do not divide themselves by south,North,East or West they just consider themselves Sudanese and I think that is the most important issue. What's very interesting is the portrayal of the media that the North is mainly Muslim and the South's is mainly Christian. But the truth is that there are many Christians in the North and there are many Muslim in the South. So the whole notion that the Sudan problem is a problem that is based on race or religion is not totally true. Corruption and embezzlement and the absence of the rule of law is the main culprit. I hope by explaining this point I have gave a small gleams of what is happening in my home country of Sudan. Looking forward to writing more.
