3DarfurWhy

The Black-Africans of Sudan felt that they needed more political and economic rights, from the Janjaweed. Also know as the government- backed Arab militiamen. The government responded by turning loose on the Janjaweed. They an through the villages on camels and horses, and the armed militiamen torched houses, stole cattle, destroyed crops, and raped and killed villagers. In the camps these people are dying because there are scarce amounts of food, water, and there isn't enough medical care. After the crisis spread to Chad, hundreds of thousands of Chadians became refugees of their own country. Relief programs are trying to be created to prevent deaths, but their resources and ranks are shrinking. The Darfur crisis also affected surrounding countries.
