“Americans have so much, but they insist on seeing the glass as half empty instead of half full. To extend the metaphor a bit, when I lived in Kakuma, I didn’t even have a glass.”-John Dau

The key information that I found was that the Arabians wanted to take over Sudan so that Sudan could become a Muslim ruled country. Since I could not find an author, I evaluated the information by looking at other websites. I checked multiple websites and found that the information was correct. I even found that in my book. It enhanced my knowledge by telling me how the war was started. I was unaware that the war started because the Arabians wanted a Muslim country.

“The Economy.” Country Studies. N.p., n.d. Web. 31 Oct. 2010. <http://countrystudies.us/sudan/53.htm>. The information that I learned was that the government was overthrown in 1989 and experienced the worst famine of the century. I evaluated the information by checking other websites. I looked throughly and found this information to be correct. This source enhanced my knowledge by informing me how the government of Sudan is today. It is still in a lot trouble having to go through the worst famine of the century.

“Politics of Sudan.” Wikipedia. N.p., n.d. Web. 31 Oct. 2010. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics_of_Sudan>. I learned that Sudan used to be split eight different ways. There were five in the north and three in the south but they were eventually abolished. I was unable to find an author yet again so I had to evaluate the information. I researched other websites and found the information to, in fact, be true. This information informed me that Sudan was really split. They also abolished them eventually and Sudan was back as a whole.

Scribner, Charles. “Sudan.” Gale Virtual Reference Library. Ed. John Middleton. N.p., n.d. Web. 31 Oct. 2010. <http://go.galegroup.com/ps/retrieve.do?sgHitCountType=None&sort=RELEVANCE&inPS=true&prodId=GVRL&userGroupName=cant48040&tabID=T003&searchId=R2&resultListType=RESULT_LIST&contentSegment=&searchType=BasicSearchForm&currentPosition=1&contentSet=GALE|CX3400100397&&docId=GALE|CX3400100397&docType=GALE&role=>. The key information that I found was that Sudan lost nearly 250,000 people due to starvation. I evaluated the source by first looking up the author. Once I saw that the author was reliable, I checked the editor information. The information enhanced my knowledge of this topic by telling me about the famine that went on in Sudan. It also informed me about their politics.

Some key information that I learned was that Sudan circles around its agriculture. Agriculture is very important to the economy of Sudan. I could not find the authors name so I researched the information on other websites. Every website I evaluated said that Sudan’s economy really relies on it’s agriculture. This information helped me understand how much this country relies on agriculture. If there were something that was to happen to the agriculture, the people of Sudan would have a hard time surviving.
