Rumbek

Rumbek is the capital of the state of Lakes (also known as Buhayrat) in southern Sudan. Following the peace agreement ending the Second Sudanese Civil War, the Sudanese People's Liberation Movement chose it as the interim administrative center of the semi-autonomous southern regions. Rumbek has a population of slightly under 100,000 and sustained significant damage during the conflict. It is serviced by a dirt airstrip and there are no paved roads.
